State recognizes Putnam business for more than 100 years of operation

Monday, August 3, 2020

Buzzi Unicem USA, a ready mix concrete supplier in Greencastle, recently received the Governor’s Century Business Award recognizing its longstanding service in the community, according to State Rep. Beau Baird (R-Greencastle).

Baird said Buzzi Unicem USA, formerly known as Lonestar Industries, has been in continuous operation for 103 years.

“Running a successful business takes hard work, and doing so for this long is an extraordinary achievement,” Baird said. “Congratulations to Buzzi Unicem USA for reaching this incredible milestone and supporting our community.”

The 76 Indiana companies and organizations honored with the Governor’s Century or Half Century Business awards will be invited to participate in the 2021 ceremony, with this year’s spring ceremony canceled due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

More than 1,560 Hoosier businesses have been recognized during award’s 29-year history.
