I just read a really interesting article in the November 2009 edition of Entrepreneur Magazine. It's about Kim Jordan who is the CEO of New Belgium Brewing Company and the company is about to rake in 100 million in revenue this year. According to the article Kim Jordan started her brewing business 18 years ago she makes one of my favorite things which is beer. I don't actually make beer but I do enjoy drinking it. On occasion that is. But I really enjoyed the article because it talks about how even though she's the CEO of this multi-million dollar company she still rides to work on her bike.


I really like this company because they focus on sustainable business practices that are good for the environment. I always enjoy when companies are environmentally responsible. And her company has a 92% employee retention rate. I'm wondering if it's because of all of the nice perks like lots of free beer, employees get two six-packs a week plus a daily shift beer. What a job!

Here's a link to the company website http://www.newbelgium.com/our-story
And of course you must be 21 to enjoy their beer.
