– PermaLife Products,
LLC announced today that its President Martin J.
Sergi has been awarded with The New Jersey Ernst and
Young Entrepreneur Of The Year award in the category
of Emerging Business. The program was created and
is produced by professional services firm Ernst &
Young LLP. The Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The
Year award recognizes outstanding entrepreneurs who
are building and leading dynamic and growing
businesses. The program honors entrepreneurs through
regional, national and global award programs in over
100 cities and 35 countries. In the 20 years that
the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The Year awards
have honored entrepreneurial excellence in business,
they have recognized more than 7,000 outstanding
entrepreneurs for their vision, innovation, courage,
and leadership in building and growing successful
businesses—businesses that influence the way we
live, the products and services we depend on, and
the economic vibrancy of our local communities and
global markets.
"We are certainly proud
of this accomplishment and we are grateful to Ernst
for its vision to promote entrepreneurship with this
awards program" said Martin Sergi, President of
PermaLife. "I am especially proud of our PermaLife
team, without their commitment to excellence
companies like ours just don't succeed". PermaLife's
Managing Director, Nicholas J. Menonna Jr. said,” I
have worked with Marty for over 20 years and I was
elated to hear the news but I have to say, not
surprised. Marty is a true entrepreneur and he
possesses a business talent that's rare.”
