Gravity Diagnostics Corporate Office

When Tony Remington and Julie Brazil opened Gravity Diagnostics, this pharmacogenetics company mainly focused on toxicology testing.

The pandemic of 2020 brought this company to the forefront, allowing them to be the go-to lab not just for Kentucky, but many other states as well. The unprecedented demand for Covid-19 testing became a boom and the boom resulted in 2,767% revenue growth from 2018 to 2020.

It’s estimated that the company processed 2.4 million Covid tests in a short two-year period.

.

In 2021, an employee of the company told his boss that he did NOT want a birthday celebration. He explained that he suffered from anxiety and couldn’t deal with being the center of attention. His request was not taken seriously and a party was held for his birthday. The employee had an acute anxiety attack and spent most of the day locked in the bathroom. He was fired.

The employee sued and won $450,000. Gravity Diagnostics says that it plans to appeal the decision.

The company has a second testing location in Cincinnati, Ohio, which was named the Fastest Growing Company in Cincinnati by the Cincinnati Business Courier for the second year in a row in 2022.

Gravity Diagnostics maintains a corporate office in Covington, Kentucky.

J.Jill Corporate Office

J. Jill offers clothing tailored for a mature woman who wants comfort and fashion.

The company was founded by Karl Lipsky in 1955. He named his company after his wife Jennifer and his daughter Jill.

Clothing was initially sold via a mail-order catalog, abandoned in 2018 for online sales.

The company went public on the NYSE in March 2017 under the ticker symbol JILL.

In May 2020, during the Covid pandemic, J.Jill donated $50,000 to First Responders First, through its J.Jill Compassion Fund, and launched a campaign for National Nurses Month, offering a shopping voucher for its newest collection to nurses, first responders, and healthcare workers.

J. Jill stock was down more than 50 percent in 2019 but turned itself around in 2022 when the stock took a big gain.

Many attribute this gain in stock to interim CEO Jim Scully.

J. Jill maintains a corporate office in Quincy, Massachusetts.

PBS Kids Corporate Office

Under the original PBS label, the company had always run children’s programming, such as Mister Roger’s Neighborhood and Sesame Street.

However, in 1994, the company decided to place all children’s shows under one channel. On July 11, 1994, PBS repackaged their existing children’s educational programming as a new block called “PTV”, airing on 11 member stations at launch.

On September 6, 1999, PBS launched the 24-hour PBS Kids television network.[12] The separate PBS Kids Network was available on high-tier subscription providers and was also offered to PBS member stations for use on a “cablecast” service or for use on the member station’s free-to-air analog channel to provide a portion of the daytime PBS Kids programming on the station.

Participating stations were required to pay an annual fee of $1,000 to use the feed. 

The company received a $961,000 grant to start a Super Why Reading Camp in Arizona in May 2022.

The public television station’s PBS Kids SUPER WHY Camp is an early literacy, evidence-based pre-kindergarten summer school transition program for 4- and 5-year-old students with little or no preschool experience in targeted low-income communities.

The popular kids show Arthur is slated to be scrapped at the end of 2022 after running for 25 seasons.

PBS Kids maintains a corporate office in Arlington, Virginia.

Lipton Corporate Office

Lipton Tea was founded in 1890 by Sir Thomas Lipton of Scotland.

Lipton used his savings to open a small tea shop. Within just a few years, Lipton owned 200 shops around Scotland.

Shortly after opening his shop, Thomas Lipton began traveling the world for new items to sell. One such item was tea, a rare and expensive luxury at the time. Sales had doubled from £40 million in the late 1870s to £80 million by the mid-1880s.

In 1890 Lipton purchased tea gardens in Ceylon, now called Sri Lanka, from where he packaged and sold the first Lipton tea. 

He arranged packaging and shipping at the lowest possible cost and sold his tea in packets by the pound, half-pound, and quarter-pound, along with the advertising slogan: “Direct from the tea gardens to the teapot.”

Lipton teas were an immediate success in the United States.

Lipton was acquired by Unilever in 1972.

In 2011, PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) criticized Unilever for conducting and funding experiments on rabbits, pigs, and other animals in an attempt to make human health claims about the tea’s ingredients.

According to the animal rights organization, Unilever decided to end the practice of Lipton products after receiving more than 40,000 appeals from PETA supporters and days before PETA made plans to launch its “Lipton CruelTEA” campaign.

 Unilever no longer tests their products on animals unless required to by governments as part of their regulatory requirements.

Lipton states that tea, especially green and black teas, supports a healthy immune function.

Ready to drink tea in bottles is in high demand in the US and the market is expected to experience tremendous growth over the next few years.

Lipton maintains a corporate office in New South Wales, Australia.
