Northern Kentucky celebrates 14 companies for decades of business success

Fourteen local companies have been honoured for reaching major milestones in their business. BE NKY Growth Partnership celebrated their achievements at a special event. Together, these firms represent 760 years of combined operations across Northern Kentucky.

State and local officials joined BE NKY's team to present commemorative plaques. The recognised businesses span industries like agriculture, technology, and manufacturing.

The oldest company on the list is The United States Playing Card Company, now marking 140 years in operation. Close behind are R.A Jones, SEGEPO-FSM, and Steinhauser, each celebrating 120 years of business.

Corporex and Skilcraft have reached their 60th anniversaries. Global Business Solutions and Taylor Farms are observing 30 years of service. Among the newer honourees, Amazon and Blair Technology Group are celebrating two decades, while 80 Acres Farms, AquiSense Technologies, Gentis Solutions, and Vivitec have each hit the 10-year mark. The recognition comes ahead of BE NKY's 2026 Annual Forum. At that event, the organisation will also highlight its 2025 Growth Companies. Earlier this year, BE NKY announced 15 new projects set to create 1,914 jobs and bring £425.5 million in investment to the region.

The 14 honoured companies reflect a mix of long-standing and newer enterprises. Their milestones range from a decade to over a century in business. BE NKY's annual recognition underscores the region's economic diversity and stability.
