Mats Inc. Awarded Certificate of Generational Achievement Posted: Jun 2011 Posted by: Mats Inc.

Mats Inc. was awarded a Certificate of Generational Achievement and membership into the 30 percent club at last night’s Massachusetts Family Business of the Year Awards, held at the Henderson House in Weston.  With only 30 percent of family-owned businesses surviving into the second generation, this prestigious honor was created to pay tribute to the hard work and accomplishment of companies that successfully achieve generational transition and continuity in their business.  Mats Inc. was also recognized as a finalist for Massachusetts Family Business of the Year.

“It is a great honor to be recognized by the Family Business of the Year program during our 40^th year in business,” said Richard Schiffmann, a shareholder of Mats Inc.  “My brothers and I are very proud of the foundation our father built for us and it is our goal to continue his standards of excellence in our work here.”

The Massachusetts Family Business of the Year Awards program was created 5 years ago in a partnership between Northeastern University’s Center for Family Business and The Family Firm Institute New England Chapter, to promote and highlight some of the great achievements of Massachusetts-based, family-owned businesses and entrepreneurs.
