Small Business Week
Leave a CommentWelcome to Small Business Week. Well, belated welcome since we are already halfway through it. I suppose that it’s a convenient lead in to my point in this post, addressing the delay in writing this. I wanted to get this posted on Monday but, unfortunately, other tasks had to come first. Like employees at small […]
A Paved Road Forward
Leave a CommentWe tend to stray away from politicized topics here at Centryco, since they are often polarized and we want everyone to be able to come to our site for entertainment, updates and industry information.

Riddle me this…

See You At 50!

I have been working with Centryco for over 41 years and have always done my best for this company, whether producing Centry© covers quickly and […]
Not an Engineer, But It’s Still My Product.
Leave a CommentCentryco prides itself on employee cooperation and collaboration. We encourage all employees to present ideas to improve quality, efficiency, or to expand our product line. Sometimes the person who can improve a product line isn’t in the office but on the production floor. David Morris has been working with Centryco for 41 years and has […]
