Chamber Announces 2023 Excellence in Business Recipients

The Effingham County Chamber will honor two local businesses as 2023 Excellence in Business recipients.

This year's recipients are Designs Unlimited, Incorporated and Jansen's Heating and Air. The two firms will be presented with the awards at the Annual Chamber Gala on Saturday, January 21. The event will be held at Thelma Keller Convention Center.

 

Designs Unlimited, Inc. is a local, family-owned, and operated business rooted in Teutopolis, IL. Founded in 2005 by Scott & Tina Brumleve in their home, the capacity of the company grew dramatically to keep pace with customer needs of screen printing, embroidery, and promotional products. The business relocated in 2007 to 201 Pearl Street and has committed itself to providing top quality printing and the highest level of customer service. In June of 2022, Designs Unlimited, Inc. broke ground at 1106 W Jefferson where their new facility is under construction. The Designs Unlimited team is eager to move in and continue growing their service to the Effingham County community.

Jansen’s Heating & Air began as a dream of Tom & Cindy Jansen in 1987 with a card table, push button phone, and one van. Since then, the Jansen’s team has been researching, teaching, and providing the latest techniques in comfort. Located on West Route 40 in Effingham, a new office was built in 2000 adjacent to the original office to accommodate the growth and houses geothermal heating and air systems. The original office has been transformed into a state-of-the-art training facility, “Comfort Academy”, to train certified technicians. In 2021, a new equipment warehouse was added to better serve the needs of their clients. In 2022, original founders Tom and Cindy retired and passed the family business down to their sons, Troy and Trent. Troy manages the day-to-day business as the General Manager and Owner, while Trent utilizes his skills and knowledge in the field as an Install Technician and Owner. Visit Jansen’s Heating & Air at 11984 E US Highway 40 in Effingham, online at JansensHeating.com, on Facebook, @JansensHtgandAir, or by phone at (217) 347-5223.
