Ranked slightly lower by their Power 50 peers than they were on last year’s list, the duo who oversee Top 40 distributor DiscountMugs.com are laser-focused on what they need to do to remain one of the promo industry’s premier companies: “Our moonshot goal would be to achieve 100% customer satisfaction,” Koppaka says. “Customers are the lifeblood of our business and if we keep them happy, business will thrive.” Under the guidance of Tabasky and newly-promoted managing director Sue Lewandowski, BEL Promo was named to Counselor Best Places to Work list this year, based on employee voting. “I am very proud of our company culture,” Tabasky says. “It doesn’t happen overnight – it takes hard work, diligence and consistency, but you can develop and define your company culture into one you can be proud of. Over the past few years and even more now, the leadership team and our Human Resources department, have done a great job to make BEL USA a company we are all proud to say is our home away from home.”
