Full line furniture supplier Amini Innovation Corp. named Denise Salcido, sales support coordinator, employee of the year at its annual holiday party.
Salcido has been with the company for 10 years.
“Denise plays an important role in sales, but it is her overall understanding of the company and her drive and initiative that make such a difference,” said Michael Amini, CEO. “She is a truly valuable employee whose consistent effort and commitment are worthy of our highest recognition.”
The Spirit of Excellence was awarded to Danny Perez, inventory control supervisor.
“This award is given to individuals that demonstrate a passion for excellence in their work on a daily basis,” said Martin Ploy, president. “Danny has been with Aico for over four years and has had an impact on many areas of the company.”
Ploy also recognized Wes Williams from American West Worldwide Express as the company’s Partner in Progress for outstanding service.
Mayra Olivares, purchasing and internal audits assistant, was presented with the Rising Star award.
“Mayra has quickly become an important part of the Aico team, making significant contributions to a very fast moving and detailed area of our business,” said Chuck Reilly, executive vice president.
In addition, the company presented awards for attitude, initiative, commitment and outstanding service to Tannia Herroz, Mike Yarbrough, Robert Trevino and Jeff Dojillo.
“I am very proud of our entire Aico team and especially our 2015 award winners as they truly represent both Aico and our industry with passion and pride,” Amini said.
