It was an opportunity to celebrate local business success and a time to thank those who have helped make it all possible.
Last Wednesday Yorkton's 'Business of the Year' held a special thank you event as well as offered tours of its factory to the public to show appreciation for the support both staff and the community have offered throughout the years.
Founded in 1973, Ram Industries has expanded five times since its inception and this year it was named Business of the Year at a Yorkton Chamber of Commerce Celebrate Success Event.
Without the dedicated support of staff, customers, businesses and other stakeholders co-founder Ray Malinowski says the business wouldn't be where it is today. The event was an opportunity to acknowledge that fact and to say thank you for 35 years of support.
Invited to be a part of the day was guest speaker Paul Martin. Born and raised in southern Saskatchewan, Martin has been seen and heard in the province's media since the early 70s. He specializes in the coverage of business and politics and has spoken around the world, giving him a unique perspective on the role of Saskatchewan and Canada on the global scene.
