Posted on: Tuesday, 7 July 2009, 06:00 CDT

SANTA ANA, Calif., July 7 /PRNewswire/ -- G & F Concrete Cutting, a Santa Ana based non-explosive demolition and concrete removal firm, has been nominated for the Southern California Minority Business Development Council's (SCMBDC) Supplier of the Year award by Union Bank of California. The winners of this prestigious award will be announced at an annual luncheon honoring outstanding certified Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs) on Thursday, July 9, at 11:00 am at the Omni Hotel in Los Angeles. This year's guest speaker is Dr. Linda A. Livingstone, Dean of Pepperdine University's renowned Graziadio School of Business and Management.

"All of us at G & F make it our business every day to be a valued resource to the companies who count on us to literally remove the obstacles in their way," said Rita Vigil-Ferguson, President of G & F Concrete Cutting. "As a second-time nominee, we are doubly honored and twice as humbled by this incredible acknowledgement from Union Bank of California and SCMBDC."

The nomination process for Supplier of the Year is as stringent as the MBE certification itself, requiring the nominee to "tell the story" of its business, show sales and market growth in a two-year comparison of employment and job creation.

The nominee must also describe company activities that contribute to the betterment of other MBEs, such as mentoring programs and participation in other minority organizations and advocacy groups. Awards are presented in four categories determined by annual sales.

G & F Concrete Cutting is one of Southern California's foremost leaders in non-explosive, mass concrete demolition, providing modern solutions in concrete cutting, drilling, rigging, and removal for nearly 30 years. The immense experience of G & F's expert engineers, project managers, and construction technicians, coupled with its state-of-the-art equipment, enables this MBE/WMBE to consistently exceed the needs of its public and private sector partners.
