One of our favorite events of the year is Marketplace Wisconsin – The Governor’s conference on diverse business development. Annually held by the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation, Marketplace serves as a catalytic event to provide educational and networking opportunities to diverse businesses and entrepreneurs in Wisconsin. As a minority-owned entity, Greenfire looks forward to attending this event in downtown Milwaukee every year, as it also acts as a moment to reflect on economic growth at the end of the year.
Among the breakout educational and networking sessions, Marketplace offers recognition to outstanding individuals and businesses who have contributed to economic growth in Wisconsin over the past 12 months. Among these entities highlighted, Greenfire was recognized for the highest certified spend in construction as a minority-owned enterprise in the State of Wisconsin in 2024.
Greenfire’s State projects include the renovation of the Cream Puff Pavilion at State Fair Park – a 23,000 SF modernization of the iconic Cream Puff building on the State Fair Grounds southwest corner.
Our project teams have also provided modernizations and renovations to HVAC and mechanical systems to facilities at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, as well as a renovation of the Union Grove VA Kitchen.
Receiving this recognition is a testament to the value Greenfire’s teams can provide to unique and challenging projects and provides a proven track record for State of Wisconsin Department of Administration projects.
We look forward to Marketplace 2025 and being amongst industry peers and project partners to celebrate the growth for Wisconsin in the coming year.
