2018 has been a momentous year for DeRoyal, with 45 years in business! When you think back to 1973 to present, the enormity of change that we have encompassed is a bit overwhelming.

We continued our celebration of 45 years in business and our quarterly philanthropy fundraising by supporting the American Cancer Society with a silent auction.

Tennessee’s most popular and well-known nickname is "The Volunteer State," earned during the War of 1812. However, this nickname was solidified during the Mexican War when the secretary of state asked for only 2,800 Tennessee volunteers and 30,000 Tennesseans responded.

Receiving an award is always special and our company appreciates the recognition. It was also an evening to reflect and acknowledge all the wonderful businesses we are fortunate to have in our community. Specifically, the two finalists, Burleson Brands and Covenant Health,who were included in the Large Business Excellence Award category.

DeRoyal will travel to New Orleans later this week within initiatives to demonstrate products and services that can help improve care as well as improve business. Our focus for this upcoming show is the Continuum® inventory management system.

As we celebrate our 45 years of business, we wanted to find ways to give back and work with four charities throughout the year. Our first organization was The Love Kitchen and we had a blast…oh yeah, we did work too!

We're honored to be a finalist in the 2018 Pinnacle Business Awards, presented by Regions Bank.
