Murphy Brothers Among New York SmartCEO ’17 Fast-Growth Companies

New York SmartCEO recently honored Sean and Chris Murphy, co-owners of Murphy Brothers Contracting among its “Fast-Growth Companies” at the 2017 Future 50 Awards Ceremony. More than 300 executives joined SmartCEO in celebrating 60 of New York area’s fastest-growing companies, including (50) mid-sized companies, (6) Blue Chip companies and (4) Emerging Growth companies, at their annual award ceremony in Manhattan.

The Murphy Brothers began their general contracting business nearly 40 years ago, operating out of the basement of their parents’ home in Larchmont, NY. Today they are known throughout the region for their custom homes and renovations as well as construction work at area private clubs. “The act of ‘building a building’ is essentially the same as it was when we started”, said Sean Murphy. “However, we’re learning to stay ahead of the curve with regard to green building, energy efficiency, stricter regulations and smart technology. After 40 years, we’re still learning”. Chris Murphy attributes their company longevity to successful collaborations, “Our company puts a lot of emphasis on achieving success through teamwork”. Both Murphy Brothers make their homes in Greenwich, CT.

“Ask any CEO and they’ll tell you that leading a fast-growing company is one of the most exhilarating and challenging endeavors an entrepreneur can experience. From growing a startup to scaling an established organization, this year’s Future 50 winners have executed their growth strategies year after year. More impressively, they have created job opportunities and fueled economic prosperity in our region,” says Jaime Nespor-Zawmon, President of SmartCEO. The 2017 Future 50 winners collectively generate more than $3.48 billion in annual revenue and employ 10,984 individuals in New York.
