BBB Integrity Awards Shine a Light on Lincoln Businesses for Ethical Practices

The vision of Better Business Bureau (BBB) (www.bbb.org/nebraska) is “an ethical marketplace where buyers and sellers can trust each other.” In this spirit, BBB serving Nebraska, South Dakota, The Kansas Plains and Southwest Iowa is pleased to conduct an annual awards program to gain public recognition for organizations committed to ethical business practices.

“BBB’s Integrity Awards are designed to promote not only the importance of ethical business practices, but also the willingness and efforts made by outstanding organizations that demonstrate a solid commitment to marketplace trust,” stated BBB Lincoln Branch Manager Teresa Stitcher Fritz.

The winners were selected by an independent panel of judges representing both the business and academic communities of Lincoln. The charity that received the award is Lincoln Children’s Zoo. The for-profit businesses that were presented with BBB Integrity Awards are: Auto Body Supply, Custom Cooling & Heating, Inc. and Epp Concrete.

Other Integrity Award candidates who demonstrated, through the application process, that they placed a high priority on honesty and integrity in the work place were recognized as “Ambassador of Integrity,” explained Fritz. The Ambassador of Integrity recipients are: GoodeGuy Construction, Roper & Sons Funeral Services and Nebraska Bank of Commerce.

BBB President and CEO Jim Hegarty stated, “BBB is pleased honor these organizations. In today’s challenging economic climate and complex world, honesty and integrity are more important than ever. Integrity Award Winners represent what is best about businesses in this area. These organizations have solid business practices, based on a commitment to serve their customers with the highest standard of ethics. They have built successful companies because of the trust that has been established, and these Awards recognize their leadership in their communities.”
