It is truly an honor for Rural Builder staff to acknowledge the following companies that have earned the Rural Builder Gold Key of Excellence for 2015. The magazine has sponsored this award for the past 33 years. The companies chosen are based on a lengthy balloting process that begins each winter at the Frame Building Expo and culminates with the July issue of Rural Builder Magazine.
An invitation for nominations and votes were solicited via e-mail, an online survey system, standard mail and fax.
