RJO Vendors do so much to make each and every RJO store successful. Which vendor has gone above and beyond for your store this year? Is there a sales representative that comes to mind when you think of award-winning customer service and who brings a smile to your face each visit. RJO wants to recognize these companies and individuals who continue to raise the bar to help you thrive in today's competitive market. You can now vote for the 2022 RJO Vendor of the Year Award. Please check your email (or scan the QR Code below) and take a moment to complete the quick ballot that will help us narrow down the top vendors in RJO. We will celebrate the winners at our upcoming show in Minneapolis. Show your favorite vendors some love in the following categories: Loose, Finished, Watches, Service/Specialty and Sales Representative of the Year.

May 30th Memorial Day
You may have heard us mention the phrase "RJO Ecosystem". What started as a metaphor to describe the nature of the relationship between Retailers, Vendor Partners, and RJO, has quickly turned into a mindset reminding us we are all interconnected and when we succeed as a group, everyone thrives.
