History
Awards of Excellence has been under the current management since 2000. It's been a journey of change and adaptation. We started out as Centre Engraving on Westpark Road when the current owners purchased the company and changed the name to CompuPro. When we were getting more calls for computer support than for awards (oops!), we changed our name again to Awards of Excellence and moved to Lyons Road in Centerville, OH.
Our latest move has ended us up in Moraine, OH. The investors of Awards of Excellence bought a building in 2006, and in 2008, we moved to Southtown Blvd. Our current facility offers a greater amount of square feet along with a more polished showroom to display our various awards, design work, feats of engraving, gifts, and signs. See our current team members here.
In 2010, Susie of Hartsocks Engraving, one of our long-time customers, was selling her engraving business that operated out of the Village Ice Cream Parlor in downtown Lebanon. Arrangements were made and with contracts signed we acquired Hartsocks Engraving that July. Susie was kind enough to put us in contact with the owner at Picture This in Lebanon. After setting up a small display in the showroom, we now make deliveries and pick-ups every Thursday afternoon to Picture This. We're excited about offering our products and engraving expertise to the Lebanon, OH area.
In 2018, we launched our vinyl wrap division, AEGraphics, giving us the capability to not only design vehicle wraps, but also to place them. We now offer vinyl vehicle wraps, decals, wall decor, and more. Find out about AEGraphics here.
