According to CVSN President Marc Karon of Total Truck Parts in West Palm, this award recognizes those companies that achieve longevity because of their attributes, strength of management and world-class quality.
This September at the association’s Aftermarket Distribution Summit, which will be held Sept. 16-19 at the Hilton Hotel & Suites

In announcing the companies to be honored, Karon said, “I was pleasantly surprised to find out that we have eight members of CVSN who run companies that have been operating for at least 100 years. Having survived the challenges of the past several years, it is extremely impressive to find companies that have flourished over multiple world wars, recessions and a depression. They deserve to be recognized.”
