Facilisgroup Celebrates Industry Excellence at the 17th Annual TASA Awards
The Facilisgroup Community came together on January 13 at the House of Blues in Las Vegas during the PPAI Expo for the 17th Annual TASA Awards, an annual celebration recognizing standout distributor and supplier partners who are helping raise the standard across the promotional products industry.
As Facilisgroup officially kicks off its 20th year of service, this year’s TASA Awards reflected the momentum of a connected community built on collaboration, leadership, and growth. The ceremony also recognized 368 Achievers, sales professionals who surpassed $1 million in sales during 2025, marking the largest collective of $1M sales reps in the industry, including 77 first-time Achievers.
“Each year, the TASAs remind us that our greatest strength is not any single tool or initiative. It is the people and companies behind the work,” said Chris Lee, President of Facilisgroup. “We are proud to celebrate the partners who lead with integrity, share what they have learned, and elevate everyone around them. That is what makes this community special, and it is what will continue to power our next twenty years together.”
Partner of the Year: TSC Inc.
The night’s highest distinction, Partner of the Year, was awarded to The Specialty Company (TSC Inc.), recognized for demonstrating exceptional leadership, championing best practices, and consistently contributing new ideas and knowledge to strengthen the broader network.
“We’re incredibly honored to be recognized as Facilisgroup Partner of the Year,” said Sam Riden, President of TSC Inc. “I’ve never been more proud of our team for the way they show up every day with sacrificial love for each other, our customers, and the communities we serve, often in the quiet, unseen moments. We’re grateful for our customers’ trust and for Facilisgroup, who has been far more than a technology partner. They’ve been wise counselors, connectors of good people, and true friends. It’s a gift to build alongside partners who want to leave the world better than we found it.”
Supplier of the Year: Terry Town
Facilisgroup also recognized Terry Town as Supplier of the Year, honoring the company’s innovation, sustainability leadership, and commitment to meaningful community impact. Terry Town continues to strengthen relationships across the network through active engagement in Facilisgroup programs and collaborative efforts with Distributor Partners.
