About

Century supplies professional, innovative and competitively priced cleaning tools, paper programs and safety supplies with an emphasis on sustainability.

Our Story:

In 1987 Blairton Hampton had a conversation with a friend and business owner that would change his career. Leonard Kaplan, owner of Kay Chemical (now Ecolab), saw a gap in the food service market. While Kay Chemical was the up and coming leading supplier of cleaning chemicals, the markets they served didn’t have the proper tools to complete the job.

Century Products LLC was established soon after to address the needs of the customers by providing high-quality, industrial grade cleaning tools. With two employees, a small warehouse space and lots of hard work and hustle the company began to establish a foothold in the market.

Today, Century partners with some of the largest corporations to provide customized and innovative cleaning tools, safety supplies and recycled paper programs. Our goal has always been and continues to be to help our partners provide clean and safe environments while improving operational and labor efficiencies.

Good Health Greensboro

7 Battleground Court, #104

About

We are a local chiropractic clinic specializing in drug-free rehabilitative care — athletes, aches and pains, people wanting to avoid surgeries, and auto accidents. All of our processes are designed to be a patient-friendly as possible so you feel more like you’re with family than at a doctor’s office.

Did you know?

We have been distancing appointments and the clinic, wearing masks (patients and staff), using air filters in exam rooms, humidifying main rooms (significantly cuts down on airborne viral spread), and limiting patient contact (most interactions are under 5 minutes at one time).

Dr. Huff also won NC Doctor of the Year by the North Carolina Chiropractic Association for his exemplary service, knowledge, and delivery of care! He was also awarded with Small Business Person of the Year from the Greensboro Chamber of Commerce!

How has the Chamber impacted your business?

Absolutely the Chamber has been a huge help! It’s allowed us to not only meet lots of different like-minded business people who are solving similar problems, but also to find vendors we need, meet business friends that we can mutually cheer for one another (and with whom we can combine forces to heal Greensboro), and know the people that are making important decisions and how they make them. Knowing what’s going on in the business community through the Coffee and Conversations, intercity trips, and check ins with Chamber team has helped us stay connected and relevant so we know the clinic we are building is reflecting the growing needs of our community. The Chamber helps us stay relevant and well-networked!

Crosspointe Homes

November 12, 2020 by Holly West

Visit

1400 Battleground Ave., Ste. 207

About

Crosspointe Homes constructs single-family and townhome communities. We offer a unique approach in home building both in the product we offer and the home buying process. We’re very intentional in thinking through how life will be lived in our homes, what makes homes functional, and what helps to improve the daily life of our homeowner. Before we started to build, we researched what future homeowners really want, we listened to current homeowners, real estate agents, and building industry experts. Not everyone uses their home in the same way, so we designed home plans that work for different lifestyles. Then, we developed a fresh approach to the buying process to make it easier and more enjoyable. We want the home buying experience to be rewarding, like it should be.

Did you know?

People need housing, especially during a pandemic. We’ve found that our efforts to design healthy homes and plans that offer home offices and multigenerational living are appreciated now even more than before. We’re excited that we already had these options available and we are thankful to be classified as an essential business so that we can continue to sale, build, employ, and provide new housing options.

Why Greensboro?

As a new business, we chose Greensboro because it is our home. Greensboro is diverse, it has a lot to offer, and it’s growing. There’s a shortage of new homes here too, so it was a fitting place to launch Crosspointe Homes. Our single-family community, Bridleton Ridge, began sales in 2019 and our townhome community, Cannon Crossing, will begin sales this fall.
