Carey Smith Big Ass Fans

What makes you an Economy Hero?
The economy has affected Big Ass Fans as it did most other companies in the country. We took a long-term approach by treating our employees as our most valuable assets. We did not implement layoffs, force people to take unpaid time off, or cancel existing benefit programs. Instead, we took the approach of looking for new markets and customers and developing new products for the long term success of the business.
