Miller's Vinyl Fencing Receives Chamber AwardOct 1, 2008
Miller’s Vinyl Fencing Receives Chamber Small Business Spotlight Award Miller’s Vinyl Fencing began as a small family-owned business at the
home of Vern Miller in 1990. After three years in the business, Miller’s son
Conrad joined the company and is now a co-owner. They purchased land in
Pleasantview and built their current facility in 1995. The new location allowed
for an expansion of services and products, and provided Miller the opportunity
to bring in semi-loads of vinyl products. “We were one of the first vinyl
fencing dealers in the state,” said Vern Miller. Miller’s Vinyl Fencing offers vinyl fences, decks and railings, and
specialty items such as arbors and picnic tables. “We primarily work with
individuals and homeowners,” said Conrad Miller. “About eighty-five percent of
our business is with homeowners and fifteen percent of our business is with
contractors.” Miller’s Vinyl Fencing works with customers within a 60 mile radius of
Pleasantview, although some projects have taken them on job sites outside the
general area. In fact, Miller’s Vinyl
Fencing has recently been working with Goertzen Homes in Inman, to provide
railings for homes that have been purchased by residents in In addition to providing the equipment and services to the clients,
Miller’s Vinyl Fencing is a designated fabricator with Royal Outdoor Products. “We’re
one of the only businesses in the state of When asked why Miller’s Vinyl Fencing became a member of the
Hutchinson/Reno County Chamber of Commerce, Vern Miller replied, “We joined the
Chamber for the exposure and for the opportunity to mingle with other community
members and prospective clients.” The Small
Business Council selected Miller’s Vinyl Fencing from nominations made by
Chamber members. The award is given monthly to a Chamber business that
exemplifies community spirit and superior business practices. Nominees must be
a Chamber member in good standing, been in business for at least three years,
