Flintco, the largest Indian-owned construction firm in the nation, continues to grow, with revenues topping $1 billion.
Robin Flint Ballenger, the chairman of Flintco, is Cherokee. Her family started the company in Oklahoma in the early 1900s and it is now the 27th largest construction firm in the U.S.
Flintco works on a wide range of projects but touts its work for tribes. The Memphis, Tennessee, office is finishing up a casino and hotel for the Poarch Band of Creek Indians in Alabama.
