\u201cWe are always excited to acknowledge our award-winning suppliers for their outstanding achievements during the year,\u201d said SAGE president, David Natinsky. \u201cBeing awarded with an A+ or A rating from SAGE is something to be very proud of and shows that our industry continues to move in a positive direction with a strong focus on customer service and quality products.\u201d<\/p>\n

July 5, 2013<\/strong> – 2013 marks the 25th<\/sup> Anniversary of Label Works. To recognize this milestone event, Label Works has planned a variety of activities to celebrate both internally and externally throughout the coming year.<\/p>\n

To communicate\u00a0their Anniversary with channel partners, they incorporated a 25th<\/sup> Anniversary logo on a variety of marketing pieces including box stuffers, trade show materials, emails and print ads. In addition, a commemorative email is being sent on the 25th <\/sup>of each month, highlighting the history of Label Works, introducing current employees, and showcasing the fun spirit of the company. They are also randomly throwing bags of popcorn in outgoing orders for the fun of it. Label Works has popcorn in\u00a0their lunchroom every Friday and wanted to share some of the fun with their channel partners!<\/p>\n

Internally, a team of Label Works employees has been put together to organize events to celebrate the Anniversary. One event was a volunteering opportunity with Girls on the Run. Twenty five Label Works employees volunteered their time towards the event on Saturday, April 27. Also, the committee is working on putting together a commemorative cookbook that will be a compilation of employee recipes.<\/p>\n

Lastly, a weeklong celebration was held the week of June 24-28. Some activities included Label Works trivia, a dress up day, goodie\/treat days and even some label fencing.<\/p>\n

The main event was an Open House celebration that was held on Wednesday, June 26. The Open House included tours of Label Works, refreshments and reminiscing. Over 90 people attended the Open house, including past Label Works employees and local Taylor company employees.<\/p>\n

To cap off the Open House, current and past employees\u00a0enjoyed an appreciation luncheon out on the Label Works lawn.<\/p>\n
