Identification Plates (PPAI 112166) honored six of its 80 employees at the Mesquite, Texas, supplier’s annual Longevity Luncheon. The event celebrates team members that achieve milestone employment marks. Two staff members, Bob Shapiro, CAS, director of business development, and Raymond Flores, director of operations, reached the 20-year mark. Shapiro joined the company as an inside sales rep, while Flores began working at the company while in high school as part of a work study program.

Chris Bradshaw, vice president of sales and marketing, says, “I can't imagine the company without these two men. Bob's passion for metal and his deep understanding of our capabilities makes him the perfect collaborator for many of our customers as they research growth opportunities for their businesses. Raymond's dedication to his team and our customers is seen daily as his crew exceeds expectations with product quality and delivery. Together they ensure our customers are heard, heeded and served, living the ID Plates core values every day."
