Applewood Seed Co. Wins 2022
Colorado Companies to Watch Award
The employee-owners of Applewood Seed Co. (ASCO) announce that they have been named a winner of the 2022 Colorado Companies to Watch (CCtW) Award. Last May, ASCO announced their place as a top finalist for the 2022 CCTW award and the 50 Winners were announced at the finalists Gala held on June 17th, 2022. The ASCO leadership team, marketing team, and sales team members attended the event as ASCO was recognized for their contributions to Colorado’s economic growth.
“This is a very impressive group to be associated with. I feel that we have made monumental progress in the 2021 and 2022 fiscal years to even be considered with this group,” stated Norm Poppe, CEO. “Many of the companies are just past the “startup” phase and in a growth mode to be considered “second stage”. Applewood Seed’s inclusion as a finalist represents a renaissance in the company, both in the recognition of the company’s growth and as an employee-owned company.”
ASCO’s priorities have paid off. Since 2018, the company’s workforce has increased by 30%, and revenues have grown by 40% in that time.
