Each year I update my database of Century Club Companies on this blog, since the newest members names won't make it into the list at the end of my book until the next issue. I'm posting this a little early this year in hopes that I will receive comments regarding businesses founded in 1925 and in continuous, independent operation for the last 100 years that I may have missed.
