Top Six for 2000
honored at Hytrol
|

A special ceremony was held
recently at Hytrol International Headquarters in Jonesboro,
Arkansas, to honor the Top Six Distributors for the year 2000.
The distributors and their wives were flown in and brought to
Hytrol in two large motor homes, preceded by a special
motorcycle escort. All employees of the Hytrol facilities were
on hand to congratulate the guests upon their arrival. The
Jonesboro High School Jazz Band provided music for the opening
ceremonies.
Bill Hawthorne, Hytrol
Vice-President of Marketing, welcomed the guests and presented
each one with their Top Six Award plaque.

One of the ongoing
missions of Hyrol’s Marketing team is to insure all distributors
are properly educated about Hytrol products and services. Three
conveyor schools and one Advanced school were held recently at
Hytrol International Headquarters in Jonesboro, Arkansas. Over 75
distributor "students" were enrolled in the schools. We
appreciate their attendance.
