Fairbank Group

1Berkshire is proud to honor The Fairbank Group. The Fairbank Group is driven to build things to last – not only businesses but the relationships and partnerships that stand behind them. Since 2008, they have expanded their eclectic portfolio, which includes Jiminy Peak Mountain Resort, Cranmore Mountain Resort, and Bromley Mountain Ski Resort; real estate development at all three resorts; a renewable energy development company; EOS Ventures; and two technology companies, Snowgun Technology and Bullwheel Productions.

Whether it is providing families a place to connect, teaching kids self-confidence, building a more sustainable future, creating career opportunities, or contributing to the communities in which they operate and serve, the purpose of Fairbank Group entities goes far beyond that of a profit motive. Their mission is to be the best in any industry and enhance the lives of the people they touch while doing so.
