Company debuts annual induction of people, places, and innovations as part of its 100 year celebration
Howes, the leading developer of lubricants and additives, has announced the official opening of the Howes Hall of Fame; a virtual platform designed to honor the trucking and agriculture industries. With the goal of recognizing great achievements and contributions across a broad spectrum of categories, the Howes Hall of Fame can now be viewed on the company’s website.
“In honor of our centennial, we proudly opened the doors today to the Howes Hall of Fame,” declared Robert B. Howes II, Executive Vice President. “All those enshrined here represent industry excellence and tireless dedication to their professions. The Hall of Fame inductees help keep our country thriving, and deserve to be recognized for those efforts.”
The Howes Hall of Fame will offer guests the chance to learn about inductees and their contributions to their respective industries, as well as the company’s 100 year history. The institution will remain open indefinitely, with new inductees announced one to two times each year. This year, the first inductee will be revealed near the beginning of April, the second in May, and the third in June. In the future, Howes will look to enlist the community to provide nominations of their peers for consideration. They look forward to hearing from people working within the industries, and learning about who and what inspires them.
It is the intent of Howes that this platform serve as a vehicle to raise awareness of the inductees and all of their accomplishments. This will be amplified by Howes as they acknowledge and celebrate honorees through media outreach. Erika Howes, V.P. of Business Development explains “We see the Howes Hall of Fame as a way to honor the people, places, and innovations that have helped shaped the trucking and farming industries. We are proud to be a part of these industries ourselves, and are excited to be able to showcase those who play vital roles within them. We want to share their stories and hope that they inspire others to be great as well.” To further celebrate their honor, not only will all of the Hall of Fame inductees be forever enshrined in the hall, they will also receive a range of memorabilia for their enjoyment.
“The Howes Hall of Fame is meant to recognize the individual pieces that make up these great industries as a whole, knowing full well that we wouldn’t have reached our centennial milestone without them,” states President Rob Howes. “A big part of our 100 Year Celebration is to say ‘Thank You.’ This seemed like the perfect kickoff opportunity to do just that.”
Other portions of the celebration will be unveiled throughout the year, with Howes embracing the theme of Recognizing, Rewarding, and Giving Back. The Howes family guarantees that everyone will want to stay tuned, because there will be plenty of exciting things taking place.
