Celebrating 19 years of business with cake – because what’s a birthday without cake?
We celebrated with a catered lunch and passed out six Beat Your Best awards. Beat Your Best is an incentive program where employees receive quarterly bonuses for achieving a predetermined goal.
To each of our customers, vendors, and supporters, we thank you for traveling this journey with us. Together, we’re confident in another 19 years of success (and another 19 after that).
