TDI-Brooks and B&B Laboratories won two Bryan Rotary Club / Newman 10 Business Performance Awards for fiscal year 2000. These awards are given in recognition of the fastest growing firms in Brazos County, Texas (i.e., the cities of College Station and Bryan).

B&B Laboratories (TDI-Brooks' affiliate lab) and TDI-Brooks won third and fifth place with sales growth between 1998 and 2000 of 70.6% and 58%, respectively. To qualify for these awards, a company must be an independent, privately-held corporation, with sales of more than $50,000 but less than $25 million in fiscal year 1998 and show a five-year sales history with an increase from fiscal year 1999 to 2000. This is the second year our two companies have won these awards. Both companies won the same award in 1998.
