Ritchie Rednour Finalist for Prestigious Entrepreneur Award

Ritchie was recently a finalist for the 2008 Entrepreneur of the Year Award, an annual award made by Eastern Kentucky University’s College of Business and the Center for Rural Development. Other finalists included Shannon and Kendall Wright of Wright Construction and the eventual winner of the award, Terry Forcht, a prominent banker and businessman from Corbin. Although Ritchie, as always, hoped for a win at the annual awards ceremony MC’d by Congressman Hal Rogers, he was pleased to be included in company that included Terry Forcht, a businessman who Ritchie has long admired.
