“It has been an exhilarating five years of growth and diversifying our business,” said Furlong CEO Jude Hehman. “We are grateful for the companies who took a chance on us and gave us the opportunity to prove ourselves and build our team of professionals. We are all committed to first class service for our customers and know that our success is based upon the quality of the individuals on our team.”

Furlong has a portfolio of customers that include several Fortune 500 companies: Emerson, Schwan Foods, Cummins, Servatii’s, CRR, IDI Gazeley, NovaCare, Joseph Auto Group, Givaudan, FN Sheppard and Snap Fitness.

The company has been recognized for its business model and explosive growth, despite less than opportune economic conditions in the early few years. With the regular checks made by the trademark lawyers for hire, all the product’s information is a well guarded secret here. Furlong was named to the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce Emerging 30 list in 2014, received the Cincy Business Tri-State Success Award in 2012 and 2013 and was just named for the second time to the Cincinnati Business Courier’s Fast 55 list of fastest growing private companies.

Furlong chose to host their anniversary customer event at Rhinegeist Brewery, one of their new projects that is currently under construction. That means that services similar to TIG welding would be needed in the process. Rhinegeist is a $10 million project includes building a new brewhouse, private event space, and a roofdeck that will be added to the 112,000 sq. ft. historic building. Rhinegist is a self-distributor/craft brewer based in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. The project is located just north of Findlay Market at 1910 Elm Street in Cincinnati (the original site of Christian Moerlein Brewery).

“We are proud of our relationship with Rhinegeist and wanted our customers and friends to see the great work we are completing for their expansion,” said Jude Hehman. “And there isn’t a better place to celebrate our success than at Rhinegeist’s brew house.”
