AICO awards excellence

By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, January 20, 2008

Pico Rivera, Calif. — Importer AICO/Amini Innovations Corp. presented three awards at its annual holiday party at the Hyatt Resort in Huntington Beach, Calif.

Mark Reyes, director of creative arts, was named Employee of the Year. He has been with AICO for four years and had worked with Chairman and CEO Michael Amini independently for several years prior to that.

"The essence of this award is in the acronym AICO, which stands for Attitude, Initiative, Commitment and Outstanding performance," said Amini. "Mark consistently contributes new ideas while enthusiastically leading the charge in the branding and imaging of AICO."

The Spirit of Excellence award was presented to Bonnie Chung, AICO's manager of international purchasing, for her passion in participation, and in recognition of her efficiency and energy, according to the company. Chung, who has been with AICO nearly four years, is the liaison to the company's factories in China and oversees the flow of containers.

The Partner in Progress award was presented to Furniture/Today in recognition of its commitment and service.

"Kevin Castellani and his dedicated team have presented truly innovative ideas for our advertising and continue to play an integral role in promoting the AICO brand," said Larry Rinaldi, AICO's president.
