Cherokee County, Northwest Iowa | Hultgrens have been good to me since 1990, just another sign of the times-a three generation family business merged into a bigger outfit. I was thinking about this yesterday-all the other businesses that have seen consolidations the last 50 years. Tried to think of any businesses that haven't seen consolidations, couldn't think of any, friend came up with law offices, which reminds me of the old joke about the new law school graduate that moved into a small town, and about starved to death until he talked one of his old classmates to move into the same town and start a separate practice. |
