This award is given to companies with less than 100 employees who display leadership in their industry and have positively impacted the Long Island business community.

"We have effectively impacted Long Island business growth in many ways," says founder and managing director Ken Stein. "By guiding individuals into the world of franchising or purchasing an established small business we have helped Long Islanders stay employed, kept real estate inhabited and created work for other services in order for these transactions to be fulfilled."

"One business opening on Long Island, needs many others to support it," adds business partner and director of franchise sales, Stuart Levenberg.  "For example, once we engage in the sale or resale of a franchise, or independent business, there is the need for lawyers, real estate professionals, accountants, construction projects, marketing plans and more without even mentioning the jobs created at the new business."

"I've often thought of KCA as the best-kept secret in business, but with this recognition by the Hauppauge Industrial Association of Long Island — I'm thrilled to see the word spreading about our services," said Stein.

The Kensington Company was honored at the HIA-LI 18th Annual Business Achievement Awards Gala held at the Crest Hollow Country Club on September 12.
