Brodie Evans and Cody Dixon, the pair that founded Centaurus Construction, didn’t see themselves as entrepreneurs when they started their business four years ago; but the Chamber of Commerce absolutely did, awarding them the Young Entrepreneur award at last night’s MJBEX Awards.
“We kind of came into it being carpenters that were sick of our bosses basically, just wanted to do our own thing,” said Dixon. “So it started out as a rebellion for us and turned into, you know, a self-sustaining opportunity.”
The two were shocked and pleased to be called up for the award, and are looking to use the momentum to continue pushing forward.
“We're a young company and, we feel like it's fuel for us to move forward and grow, so we're excited for the future,” said Evans. “We're thankful for the Moose Jaw Chamber and for the community of Moose Jaw for everything that they've done for us.”
Dixon feels they set themselves apart by providing a good service and supplementing their name with hard work.
“I think every day we strive to do quality work. We don't cut corners,” said Dixon. “Even when things got tough, we just kept, kept grinding her out and doing quality work. And so I think that that's part of what separates us from some of the other companies.”
