We're so thankful for the recognition as a 2021 Cascade Capital Business Growth Honoree for the fifth consecutive year and eighth time overall! ⭐

The prestigious Business Growth Award recognizes businesses that display significant growth in sales and/or employment over the past five years from a seven-county region in Ohio (Summit, Medina, Portage, Stark, Wayne, Ashland and Holmes). We received the award on October 21st at the Cascade Capital Business Growth Award conference at the John S. Knight Center in Akron.  

“Our Fire-Dex family is honored to win the Cascade Capital Business Growth Award,” states Lauren Burke Devere. “We wouldn’t be where we are today without our amazing team of associates and our customers. We truly appreciate the support we’ve received within our community and are looking forward to another successful year of growth!” 

Just this year, we expanded with the acquisition of Marken PPE Restoration, an Independent Service Provider (ISP) of PPE clean and repair services located in Las Vegas, Nevada. This will act as a fifth location for Gear Wash, a leading UL certified ISP that we acquired in 2019.  

As we continue to show tremendous growth, we are driven to invest in diverse talent with unique skillsets and experiences. With the onboarding of 47 employees this past year, the business will continue streamlining the development and production of lifesaving gear for first responders across the globe.
