CODY, WY -- Greg Perino's operation, Bear Tooth Marble & Granite, was opened here about a year ago, situated in a 3,000-square-foot showroom/yard. The company covers a rather large market area from Billings, MT, to the north to virtually all of the state of Wyoming.
"The great majority of our business comes from word of mouth from contractors, architects, interior designers, etc.," said Perino. "As the state grows, so do we. Our business mix is approximately 80% residential and 20% commercial. We do a large amount of custom work, including countertops, floors, baths, fireplaces and walls. The interior designers keep us busy with a lot of creative touches like Jacuzzi tubs and surroundings."
