Worthington Enterprises, Inc
A diversified maker of steel and building products, Worthington Enterprises produces everything from propane tanks and HVAC components to outdoor grills and architectural metal panels used in homes and businesses. It grew out of a steel processing shop founded in 1955 by John H. McConnell in Columbus, Ohio, who famously insisted his people came first. Fun fact: the company split in 2023, spinning off its steel business as Worthington Steel while keeping the consumer and building-products side under the Worthington name.
