🎉🏆✨ Yesterday marked a truly special moment for Paraco as our CEO and Chairman, Joe Armentano, was honored with the prestigious 2024 Fieri Community Leadership Award. Surrounded by loved ones, including his grandchildren, Joe accepted this esteemed recognition at The Bronx Zoo's Schiff Family Great Hall. Established in 1985, the Fieri Community Leadership Award celebrates individuals who demonstrate exceptional leadership and a commitment to supporting educational opportunities. This milestone event wouldn't have been possible without the generous support of our sponsors, the dedication of our board of directors, and the hard work of key individuals like John Calvelli, Scholarship Fund Chair; Maria A. Braca, Scholarship Event Chair; and Krista Gresia, Scholarship Committee Chair. Congratulations once again to Joe Armentano on this well-deserved honor, and thank you to everyone who helped make this celebration a success! 🌟👏 Photos: Ana Paula Saraiva, 🌏Christina Armentano #FieriAward #CommunityLeadership #ParacoProud #FuelingEducation The FIERI Scholarship Fund Also see: Paraco CEO Joe Armentano Receives 2024 Fieri Community Leadership Award https://lnkd.in/dn5Yby6r

This week, the Paraco team partnered with the Gilbert community of Polk Township for emergency response and awareness training! We're proud to participate and thankful for the opportunity to share Paraco’s safety commitment. Huge thanks to employee, Phil Warner, for leading the training, and to our team for attending! #EmergencyPreparedness #ParacoInTheCommunity #SafetyFirst

Safety is our top priority, and we recently partnered with local emergency responders for a safety walk-through of our South Plainfield facility while fully operational. This allowed us to demonstrate our robust safety protocols and earned high praise from the Fire Chief when he stated our facility was “the cleanest and most organized facility they'd seen in 40 years!” Read how Paraco’s commitment to safety is expanding. #AskParaco #SafetyFirst #CommunityPartnerships
