Only 68 companies hold this coveted status. They include legendary blue-chip dividend companies like Proctor and Gamble (PG), Coca-Cola (KO), and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) – which by the way have dividend growth streaks of over 60 years!

[Register for details.]( -- Dividend Aristocrats Change the Game The first company added to the Dividend Aristocrats is C.H. Robinson Worldwide (CHRW). It was founded in 1905 by a traveling salesman who wanted to deliver fruits and vegetables to settlers in the Dakotas. Back then, the best form of transportation was horse and buggy, and most perishable goods would spoil before they could get to their destination. Well, he managed to figure it out by building a distribution network that could quickly get produce to grocers. Today C.H. Robinson Worldwide is one of the world’s largest freight and logistics platforms, making over 20 million shipments each year for more than 100,000 customers. The company made its 25th consecutive dividend increase last year, and it’s all thanks to a giant fleet of trucks. Next up is Nordson (NDSN). This company got started in 1954 by making machines that could perform “airless” spray painting. It quickly became a leader in the paint finishing industry as its technology allowed more precise and even coatings while using less paint. Today, Nordson makes highly specialized machines for precision manufacturing. Its equipment is used to produce everything from semiconductors and printed circuit boards to diapers, food and beverage containers and even medical devices. Nordson has a 59-year dividend growth streak, but it only just got added to the Dividend Aristocrats because it grew large enough to be included in the S&P 500 last year. Last but not least: J.M. Smucker (SJM). You may recognize the name behind the popular Smuckers brand of jams and jellies. But the company makes a lot more than just fruit preserves. The company traces its roots back to an entrepreneur selling homemade cider and apple butter in 1897. It later started selling toppings for ice cream and grew into a nationwide distributor for all sorts of products. Today, J.M. Smucker owns a number of major brands of coffee including Folgers, Dunkin’ and Café Bustelo. It also makes popular pet food brands like Meow Mix, Milk Bone, and Rachel Ray Nutrish. And of course, it still makes the iconic Smuckers jams as well as Jif peanut butter and Uncrustables sandwiches. The company made its 25th dividend increase last year, marking an important milestone in its tasty history.
