The leadership team of Okuma America Corporation has recognized Morris Group Inc. as its distributor of the year for Okuma's fiscal 2022 reporting year. Aaron Hornyak of the Morris Group, Inc. leadership team accepted the award at Okuma's annual distributor meeting.

The Okuma Distributor of the Year Award was established to recognize a distributor partner for exceptional performance in selling and servicing Okuma products and services throughout a given year.

"Morris Group Inc. has been in business since 1941 with a focus on long-term relationships between our customers and our suppliers. We have worked with Okuma since 1981 and we continue to strive to be the best we can be together, for the sake of our customers. The acknowledgment from Okuma is meaningful to our employees of a job well done. While we are proud of this achievement, we realize the only way to truly create customers for life is to stay focused every single day on their needs and solving their problems."

Morris Group, Inc. has been an Okuma distributor since 1980. When considering the company's longevity, and the 40+ year tenure of serving as an Okuma distributor, Tim Thiessen, Okuma Vice President of Sales and Marketing, expressed his gratitude for Morris Group, Inc., stating, "Valuing meaningful partnerships is one of our central corporate values at Okuma, and we have truly enjoyed the strong partnership with the Morris Group, Inc. for over the last 40 years.
