Forty-two years ago, CJ & Associates was founded with a simple belief. If you take care of your clients, take care of your employees, and always stand behind the work you do, success has a way of following. More than four decades later, that philosophy still guides every decision we make.
This year, we’re honored to be recognized as a 2026 Future 50 company by BizTimes for the second year in a row. The award recognizes some of the fastest-growing privately held companies in southeastern Wisconsin. While we’re incredibly grateful for the recognition, we don’t see it as a finish line or even a measure of success.
To us, it’s the outcome of thousands of conversations, partnerships, projects, and relationships built over more than four decades. It’s the trust our clients place in us when they’re furnishing a single office, redesigning an existing workplace, or planning an entirely new workspace. It’s the dedication of our team members who genuinely care about doing the right thing, solving problems, and creating spaces people are proud to work in. It’s the manufacturers, vendors, and partners who work alongside us every day.
We’ve never set out to chase awards. We’ve simply focused on doing right by the people we serve. We believe that when you put people first and stand behind your work, growth becomes the result rather than the goal.
To our clients, employees, partners, and everyone who has been part of the CJ & Associates story, thank you. Your trust, support, and confidence in our team have made this recognition possible, and we are truly grateful to share it with all of you.
As we look ahead, our commitment remains exactly the same as it was 42 years ago: to provide exceptional workplace design, quality furnishings, and the level of service our clients have come to expect from CJ & Associates. That will always be the foundation of who we are.
