Renewing Our Certified Evergreen® Commitment in Our 75th Year

This year marks 75 years of Bishop-Wisecarver®, which feels kind of amazing to say out loud. It’s a big milestone, and it’s given us a chance to take a breath, look back at how far we’ve come, and think about what matters most as we keep moving forward.

One thing that means a lot to us? We’ve just been recertified as a Certified Evergreen® company!

Certified Evergreen® is a recognition given by the Tugboat Institute® to companies that commit to building with long-term purpose and people in mind. It’s not about flashy growth or chasing trends, it’s about steady progress, solid values, and doing right by your team, your customers, and your community. That approach has always made sense to us. We focus on doing good work, solving meaningful problems, and being there for the people who count on us. Getting recertified reinforces that we’re still on the right track.

The recertification process gave us a chance to reflect—on the good work being done, the areas we can grow, and the people who make it all happen. Our team brings so much care, grit, and expertise to what we do, and it’s that consistency and heart that really defines us. It’s also what fuels our Signature Experience™: taking the time to listen, ask the right questions, and deliver thoughtful, reliable solutions that customers can count on.

Last year, we were named one of the Best Evergreen Companies™, a recognition that meant a lot to our team, and an honor that recognizes our dedication to building a business that thrives not just today, but for generations to come.

So here we are—in 2025, 75 years in—still learning, still building, and still believing that steady, value-driven progress is worth celebrating. Thanks for being on this journey with us.
