Three local companies were recognized for more than 50 years in business by Governor Eric Holcomb last week. The Governor’s Century and Half Century Business Awards were presented during a ceremony at the Indiana Statehouse Thursday, according to the Indiana Economic Development Corporation.
Among the recipients were Good Oil Company, which celebrated 78 years in business; Kersting’s Cycle Center, which has been in business for 57 years; and Winamac Coil Spring, with 71 years in business.
Governor Holcomb said in a statement that “these companies exemplify the pioneering spirit and perseverance that will push our state forward for years to come.” To qualify for the award, businesses must demonstrate a commitment to community service, in addition to remaining in continuous operation for at least 50 or 100 years.
