“Congratulations on 10 Years!”

It is my pleasure to recognize Patrick upon reaching ten years of service with ABARTA. Patrick has a very “hands on” approach to his duties and shows much flexibility to the numerous aspects of supporting both our Coca-Cola and our Kahiki Foods Divisions.

His commitment and attention to detail has contributed greatly to our success. Please congratulate Patrick when the opportunity arises.  He would be happy to discuss collections, hockey, or baseball, not necessarily in that order. Be assured, Patrick maintains many “statistics” regarding all of the above.

Again, my personal thanks for TEN years of dedicated service!

“Congratulations on 15 Years!”

 

From one “Virgo” to another….

The three words I would use to best describe Paula Hill are: committed, detailed, and reliable!  Fortunately for all of us, she does not yet know the meaning of a “sick” day. Paula balances “collections” with customer service well; it can often times be very challenging. She has a genuine concern for our drivers, salespersons, the finance staff, and all other employees of Buffalo Coca-Cola, not to mention all of our customers. Paula has been and continues to be a very valued employee; she is always open-minded to new ways and will be instrumental when we convert to Eostar next year. Again, my respect and thanks upon reaching the fifteen year milestone and for all you do for our company,
