Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc. Receives Presidential Award for Exports
WASHINGTON, DC--(Marketwired - Jun 3, 2014) - U.S. Secretary of
Commerce Penny Pritzker on May 28, 2014 presented Pharma-Bio Serv,
Inc. (OTCQB: PBSV) with the President's "E" Award for Exports at a
ceremony in Washington, D.C. The "E" Awards are the highest
recognition any U.S. entity may receive for making a significant
contribution to the expansion of U.S. exports.
"We are honored to receive the 'E' Award," said Ms. Elizabeth
Plaza, Principal Executive Officer of Pharma-Bio Serv. "When we
first began exporting in 2008, export services accounted for two
percent of our total service revenue. During the past five years,
export services grew to approximately eleven percent of our total
service revenue, enabling us to sustain jobs and even expand our
workforce."
"Pharma-Bio Serv has demonstrated a sustained commitment to
export expansion. The 'E' Awards Committee was very impressed with
Pharma-Bio Serv's work to expand into emerging markets. The
company's dedication to growing the exporter base within its
community, especially minority business, was also particularly
impressive. Pharma-Bio Serv's achievements have undoubtedly
contributed to national export expansion efforts that support the
U.S. economy and create American jobs," said Secretary Pritzker in
her congratulatory letter to the company announcing its selection
as an award recipient.
U.S. exports of goods and services hit an all-time record of
$2.3 trillion in 2013. Nationally, jobs supported by exports
reached more than 11 million last year, up 1.6 million since 2009.
Launched earlier this month, NEI/Next, a new phase of President
Obama's National Export Initiative, works to boost economic growth
and support additional American jobs by assisting more U.S.
companies of all sizes in exporting to more markets across the
globe.
President Kennedy revived the World War II "E" symbol of
excellence to honor and provide recognition to America's exporters.
The "E" Award Program was established by Executive Order 10978 on
December 5, 1961. Four years of successive export growth and an
applicant's demonstration of an innovative international marketing
plan that led to the increase in exports is a significant factor in
making the award.
U.S. companies are nominated for the "E" Award for Exports
through the Department of Commerce's U.S. and Foreign Commercial
Service office network, located within the Department's
International Trade Administration, which has offices in 108 U.S.
cities and more than 70 countries to help U.S. exporters.
A total of 66 U.S. companies were presented with the President's
"E" Award this year.
