Honors For Two At Nor-Lake

Two personal notes on Nor-Lake Inc. personnel. The Hudson, Wis., manufacturer has honored Barb Belongia, v.p.-foodservice sales and marketing, with its President’s Award for Excellence.

The award recognizes Belongia’s leadership and ability to develop, understand and execute Nor-Lake sales strategies; she has driven sales performance to a record level and achieved the $100 million milestone. Belongia also successfully repositioned the Nor-Lake brand from a walk-in to a complete refrigeration manufacturer.

Nor-Lake also has honored Henry Meek of N.C. Meek Inc. on his retirement as an independent sales representative for the company. N.C. Meek has represented Nor-Lake in the Ohio Territory since 1950. The firm was founded by Norman Meek, Henry’s father, and was one of the first independent manufacturer’s representative firms hired by Nor-Lake. 

Henry Meek joined those efforts in 2008. Jim Escola and his Advantage Marketing Group team will continue to represent Nor-Lake for all accounts in the region.

Nor-Lake is part of the Standex Food Service Equipment Group.
