Fuse Alliance network members were recognized for excellence in Communication, Reporting and Follow Up, Loyalty, Sustainability and Spirit. Seven network businesses received awards during a presentation, which was held during the network’s annual conference. OEC, based in Boise, Idaho, was awarded Excellence in Communication; Division 9, based in the Seattle area and Christian Brothers, based in the San Diego area both took home Excellence in Reporting and Follow-Up; three network members received Excellence in Loyalty, StarFloors of Dallas, Texan Floor Service of Houston, and Franklin Flooring in Pennsylvania.
