Alaska Business Monthly's 2012 CORPORATE 100 Top Citizens of Industry.

• Position: Special section: 2012 CORPORATE 100 - Geographic overview

Congratulations to this year's Corporate 100. Help us salute and honor these top citizens of industry that we've highlighted in this annual special section of companies doing business in our great state. These 100 companies employ 63,782 in Alaska, and, taking into account parent company and global presence data, the number of jobs rises to more than 1.48 million--not to mention the billions of dollars in revenues generated.

In addition to all the goods and services supplied and the hard work performed to keep the economic engine running, these companies and their employees all contribute to the common good through community involvement. Whether it is dollars, volunteers or the way they do business, the Corporate 100 exemplify corporate citizenship.
