Morgan Hill-based Cal Color Growers was one of two companies honored by the Family Business Association of California for celebrating 25 years as family-owned businesses.
Cal Color Growers is a wholesale plant nursery, while the other honoree is San Francisco-based Advisory Group, a wealth management and 401k advisory company.
Robert Rivinius, FBA’s executive director, said the two major milestones demonstrate that even in an increasingly unfriendly business environment, well-run family-owned companies can stand the test of time.
“Family businesses are the backbone of our economy. Our state’s 1.4 million family businesses employ 7 million people and create three-quarters of all new jobs,” Rivinius said. “It’s not easy to grow and nurture successful businesses and we congratulate Cal Color Growers and The Advisory Group for 25 years of success.”
