Newberry Tanks Wins Gold at the American Business Awards for Third Straight Year
West Memphis, AR, May 3, 2022 – Newberry Tanks & Equipment, LLC, a leading manufacturer of oil and petroleum steel tanks and equipment, announced that the company is the recipient of two Gold Stevie® awards from the 2022 American Business Awards®. Honors for Newberry Tanks include:
- GOLD for Achievement in Customer Satisfaction
- GOLD for Company of the Year – Metals and Mining
More than 3,700 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of categories at the American Business Awards and more than 240 professionals worldwide participated in the judging process to select this year’s Stevie Award winners.
Achievement in Customer Satisfaction
The ABA judges recognized Newberry’s exemplary commitment to their customers. After experiencing tremendous growth in 2021, Newberry overcame the challenge of providing their award-winning level of customer service on a now larger scale. Through strategic implementation of the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), key technology, and the development of customer-centric order and delivery systems, Newberry is committed to and delivered customer satisfaction. An astounding 100% of Newberry customers surveyed in 2021 reported being “Very Satisfied” with Newberry, up from 79% in 2018.
Judges said:
“Process improvement, significantly faster turnaround times and making the client relationship a partnership by planning together and creating a personal touch is a big differentiator.”
“This is a story of customer understanding driving success.”
Company of the Year – Metals and Mining
The ABA also recognized Newberry Tanks’ achievement in the face of crippled supply chains, labor shortages, rising steel prices, and transportation delays. Instead of bending, the company placed significant investment in their workforce, facilities, technology, and new programs, paving the way to become an industry-leading steel tank manufacturer. Newberry’s welder turnover rate remained extremely low, and the company implemented a “Tank Tracker” process to give customers ultimate flexibility in the order process and delivery. In Newberry’s 2021 customer survey, commitment was mentioned as Newberry’s defining strength.
Judges noted:
“Newberry has had significant growth and maintenance during such a traumatic time for the US especially within the supply chain.”
“The company has implemented best-in-class project and manufacturing processes and adopted an unconventional approach for maintaining and retaining welding talent.”
Newberry Tanks President and COO, Matt Kohnke, commented, “Thank you to the judges at the American Business Awards, our clients, and most of all, the team at Newberry. It is especially gratifying for the company to be recognized for our hard work in customer satisfaction.”
