Also included in the list are business that have been around since 1873 (Gilbane Building Co), 1896 (David Michael & Co) and 1903 (EP Henry)! We’re all very excited to be included alongside these successful family-run businesses, and all from our local area. The Gilbane Building Co is currently owned by the great-grandsons of the original founder - Someday, we hope to join them in the ranks of multi-generation-run history.
Congratulations to everyone that made the list!
