Jamaica Bearings wins SBA award
Jamaica Bearings Co. was recently awarded the Small Business Administration's 2015 Region 2 Small Business Subcontractor of the Year award.
JBC was nominated for the award by federal prime contractor UTC Aerospace Systems.
“Over the course of our 90 years in business, JBC has received numerous awards, but we are especially proud of this recognition because we were nominated by UTC Aerospace Systems," said Peter F. Negri, Jamaica Bearings Group CEO. "To be nominated by UTC Aerospace Systems, a respected and successful provider of advanced aerospace and defense products worldwide, is testament to not only the value a small business can deliver, but also to the hard work of each and every JBC employee."
For more than 50 years, SBA has recognized the outstanding achievements of America’s small businesses for their contributions in their local communities, and to the nation’s economy. Regional winners are automatically considered for the national award.
"Each JBC employee shares a sense of commitment, pride in their work, and integrity that enables our company to consistently deliver quality product on a timely basis, and each has contributed to our success and recognition by UTC Aerospace Systems and the SBA. All of us are honored for the recognition that this prestigious award represents.”
