PPAChicago's Spring Event Was a Grand Slam!
PPAChicago and it's members attended the Cubs vs. Giants night game on May 23rd. There was a total of 111 registered attendees. Members enjoyed an all you can eat and drink style set up and great views from the rooftop. The rain delay was a minor setback, starting an hour later, but finishing on time with a big Cubs W. This is an event worth repeating, and with the feedback received, it will be!
Thank you to our generous Sponsors!
Strike Promo, the event's Diamond Sponsor, provided bracelets to all attendees.

Pro Towels Named Among PPB Magazine's
Greatest Companies To Work For in 2017
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (May 9, 2017) -
The Pro Towels family announced that it has been named one of the promotional products industry's 2017 Greatest Companies To Work For by
PPB
(Promotional Products Business) magazine.
PPB
is the industry's flagship publication published by Promotional Products Association International (PPAI; ppai.org), the not-for-profit association for more than 14,300 corporate member companies and more than 510,000 industry professionals who lead the $21 billion industry.
PPB
's annual search to find the best industry employers turned up more than 100 companies nominated by their highly satisfied employees. Pro Towels was one of 60 selected
for its ability to emulate best practices that keep workers happy, satisfied and engaged.
The
PPB
recognitions were based on employee responses to an online survey exploring several key areas, including engagement, effectiveness, leadership, ethics, pay, benefits, training and work/life balance.
"We are honored to be recognized as one of the 'Greatest' companies to work for by both
PPB
and our employees," said Kevin Nord, President. "We take employee satisfaction to heart and are dedicated to making sure that our employees benefit from a culture that promotes creativity and supports personal growth. In fact, we encourage all Pro Towels employees to take an active role in making our work environment highly productive, collaborative and constantly evolving to keep pace with this exciting industry and the clients we serve."
Of those industry companies with winning scores, 19 were suppliers, 39 were distributors and two were business services companies. The size of the winning companies, categorized by numbers of employees, was diverse ranging from five to more than 600 and company history was varied too. The oldest company was founded in 1878; the newest is just four years old. Learn more about these outstanding workplaces and see what their employees say about working there in the June issue of
PPB
available later this month.
