Women In Business

els

Since 2000, the Kansas City Business Journal recognizes women in for-profit businesses who are committed to excellence and have made contributions to their fields and communities. This year Els Thermote was recognized along with 24 other women at a luncheon on July 24, 2008. It is the sound, innovative business practices that make SMH one of the best companies in the Kansas City area. For example, in the past year SMH has:

  • Added three new distribution centers
  • Made improvements in employee benefits including 401K and long-term disability
  • Increased employee training opportunities
  • Increased communication about company news, training and open positions

While 2008 has been a busy and challenging year economically, SMH continues to build a strong company. Ms. Thermote said, "I do not feel this recognition is my personal accomplishment, it is OUR accomplishment." She credits the employees and their hard work for realizing SMH's mission of "highly enthusiastic customer relationships" and for continued success of SMH. She states that it's the goal of SMH to remain innovative in business practices to help SMH and its employees reach their full potential.
