Business notes

Godin’s Piggly Wiggly at 6111 W. Mequon Rd., Mequon, has been named the 2002 Business of the Year by the Mequon-Thiensville Area Chamber of Commerce.

The business was recognized based on the support for the community offered by owners Paul and Karen Godin, and because of the improvements the Godins have made to the store.
According to the chamber, over the past nine years the Godins have improved the Piggly Wiggly. In the past year, the store has gone through a complete renovation which, in addition to allowing more products to be offered, has improved the overall aesthetics of the area.
Other nominees for the award who were recognized for their contributions were Suburban Rental, Thiensville; Greg Mueller Upholstery, Thiensville; and Meadowmere Assisted Living Apartments, Mequon.
The chamber also honored Mequon-Thiensville School District Superintendant John Box as the citizen of the year.

Ansay & Associates (www.ansay.com) has a new Port Washington headquarters at 101 E. Grand, Suite 11 in the new Harbor Square Building. The new facility is located just two miles east of the former A.N. Ansay office, which was located at 217 Freeman Dr. According to co-owners Mike and John Ansay, the agency had a lease that was expiring, initiating the move. "Our new office gives us a more dynamic atmosphere needed to provide superior customer service, to conduct business seminars on-site, and has the convenience of being close to all of the amenities," Mike Ansay said. In addition to the Port Washington headquarters, the agency has an office in downtown West Bend, Campbellsport and Green Bay. A.N. Ansay & Associates is a full-service insurance agency.
