About the Event

Spencer Coates, President of Houchens Industries, Inc., will tell the Houchens story—from its early beginnings in 1917 to becoming one of the largest 100% employee-owned ESOP companies in the United States. Since adopting its ESOP, Houchens has grown its annual sales from approximately $200 million in 1988 to over $3.0 billion in 2012.  The 35 businesses owned by Houchens now employ over 17,000 employees.
