The Certified Evergreen mark calls out the commitment to excellence and longevity that these businesses share.”

“The entire Andesa team is honored to have achieved Certified Evergreen status,” noted Andesa President & CEO Ron Scheese.  “For more than 35 years Andesa has operated under a commitment to serve each other, our clients and our communities. Certified Evergreen is a continuation of the promise to those constituencies for the long-term.  The Certified Evergreen benchmarking and process allows us to learn from similar organizations to help Andesa sustain our vision and commitments for generations to come.”

Certified Evergreen companies are those dedicated to maintaining operational independence and private ownership in the interest of those they serve and employ. They measure success by how well they deliver on their mission and they embody the values of Evergreen 7Ps™.

• Purpose – Being passionately driven by a compelling vision and mission.
• Perseverance – Having the ambition and the resilience to overcome obstacles and keep pursuing our goals indefinitely into the future.
• People First – Engaging a workforce of talented associates who excel as a team and are motivated by the mission and the culture, in the belief that, by taking care of them, they will take care of the customers, suppliers, partners, communities and their families.
• Private – Taking advantage of the ability of closely-held private companies to have a longer-term view, greater flexibility around strategies, and more operating flexibility than public or exit-oriented businesses.
• Profit – Not mistaking profit as the purpose of the business; but recognizing it is essential to survival and independence, and the most accurate measure of customer value delivered.
• Paced Growth – Having the discipline to focus on long-term strategy, balance short-term and long-term performance, and grow steadily and consistently from year to year.
• Pragmatic Innovation – Embracing a continuous-improvement process built around taking capital-efficient, calculated risks to innovate creatively within constraints.
