This recognition means a lot, it’s an honor to be awarded the top position for this important category within Fastenal and receive another coveted blue jacket, and we’re already hard at work ensuring the momentum stays strong through 2022 and beyond,” said Royce Hanamaikai, Director of National Accounts at Mechanix Wear.
