Congratulations Toby Halliday – 2025 Manager of the Year!

We’re recognizing someone whose work touches nearly every part of our organization.

This award reflects growth, trust, and impact – and it aligns directly with our purpose of Delivering the Brands that Bring Friends Together ™

Driven to Serve

This role exists to make others better. Whether it’s Sales, Operations, Finance, or Leadership, the work is done with the intent to improve decisions, strengthen execution, and help the team win.

Accountability to the Team

This is a position where accuracy matters – and ownership matters even more. When something isn’t working in our systems, our processes, or our thinking, it gets surfaced, addressed, and followed through on. That level of accountability has elevated all of us.

Passion to Grow shows up in the questions that get asked and the assumptions get challenged. Growth doesn’t happen without someone willing to push us forward – even when it creates a little healthy tension.

Caring and Compassionate

Behind every report and recommendation is an understanding that real people are doing the real work. Over time, this has shown up not just in what is identified, but in how it’s communicated – with more awareness, patience, and partnership.

When it comes to Positive Energy, this isn’t about being the easiest person in the room and he’d be the first to admit that. This role often starts with exposing gaps or shortcomings, and that can be hard to hear. What’s earned respect over time is the consistency, the intent, and the commitment to making the company better. More and more, people have come to truly appreciate that.
