STATEHOUSE (Aug. 20, 2026) – Ancon Construction and Nuway Construction recently received the Governor's Half Century Business Award recognizing their longstanding service in Elkhart County, according to State Rep. Joanna King (R-Middlebury).
"The level of dedication and commitment from both of these businesses is remarkable as they've continued their operations over the years to serve our community," King said. "We're fortunate to have longstanding companies like these building and supporting our neighborhoods, and I wish them many more years of success."
