Greater Brookfield Chamber of Commerce: Celebrating sustainable business practices in Brookfield

BROOKFIELD, WI – The Greater Brookfield Chamber of Commerce in partnership with Environmental Systems, Inc. (ESI), Hunzinger Construction, Waukesha County Economic Development Corporation (WCEDC) and the City and Town of Brookfield will be recognizing and celebrating businesses in Brookfield that are engaged in sustainable business practices.

This First Annual event, which runs from 8:00 – 9:30am, will kick off at 8:00am on Thursday, September 30th with a ribbon cutting ceremony at ESI, 3410 Gateway Road, Brookfield. Immediately following the ribbon cutting, there will be a brief program by WCEDC on their Partnerships For Sustainability followed by a tour at ESI.

Partnerships for Sustainability is an economic development initiative designed to provide Southeastern Wisconsin businesses with practical steps that improve top-line revenue and bottom-line efficiencies through sustainable business practices.

ESI’s building; also know as Gateway West Sustainable I, featured collaboration during the design and construction process which produced a showcase for practical sustainability centered on efficient use of resources impacting bottom-line returns.

“Considering the current state of the economy and the business impact of efficiency and sustainability efforts, I believe the interest in our new facility derives from executives wanting to understand how improved building performance reduces operating costs, improves productivity and generates a measureable return on investment,” ESI President Paul Oswald says. 

If your business is located in Brookfield and you are engaged in sustainable practices, please contact the Greater Brookfield Chamber of Commerce to be recognized at this event.

The event is open to anyone wanting to learn more about sustainable business practices. Registration is requested. For additional information, or to register for this event, please contact the Greater Brookfield Chamber of Commerce at 262-786-1886 or email bcc@brookfieldchamber.com.
