CBT Company Named a Semi-Finalist as the best in Family and Private Business.
CBT company is proud to announce the recognition as a Semi-Finalist for the 18th Annual, 2017 Goering Center Family & Private Business Awards.
CBT was founded in Cincinnati in 1921 as a small belting shop that developed custom, made-to-order belts for area manufacturers. James E Stahl Jr. purchased the company in 1975 and transformed it from a belting company to a full service industrial automation distributorship with over 200 employees. Despite the immense growth, CBT has always stayed true to our core values and our Cincinnati roots. Learn more about CBT’s history here.
As a semi-finalist, CBT company will be further evaluated by an independent panel of judges who will be looking at the breakthroughs and accomplishments that distinguished our business – and the Cincinnati region – in 2017.
