Additionally, the Business of the Year award recipient is a company with 26 or more employees and has been operating for a minimum of five years. ESG currently employs close to 700 full-time employees and has been in the utility operations and public works management business for 15 years.

“ESG is very proud to be a part of the Macon-Bibb County business community and we are truly honored to have been selected for this prestigious award. Macon’s central location in the state of Georgia has been a key component of ESG’s growth and success over the past 15 years. We express our sincere appreciation to the Chamber and the MEDC for this honor and recognition,” expressed co-founders Dan Groselle and Clay Sykes.
