Oak Street Manufacturing, a leading commercial furniture manufacturer based in Monticello, Iowa, has been named the recipient of the Pizza Ranch Vendor of the Year Award during the annual Pizza Ranch National Conference, celebrated June 8-10 at the Kalahari Resorts and Convention Center in Wisconsin Dells.
The award recognizes Oak Street Manufacturing's exceptional partnership, dedication to quality, and more than three decades of service to Pizza Ranch restaurants across the country.
Led by CEO Tom Bagge, Oak Street Manufacturing has been a valued Pizza Ranch partner since 1993. Throughout that partnership, the company has provided furniture and buffet solutions for 275 Pizza Ranch locations, helping create the welcoming and family-friendly dining environments guests enjoy today.
Pizza Ranch, based in Orange City, Iowa, hosts its National Conference each year to bring together franchisees, restaurant managers, vendors, and support center staff from across the system. The conference serves as an opportunity to reconnect, celebrate achievements, learn about company initiatives, participate in educational breakout sessions, engage with industry partners during the Vendor Fair, and recognize outstanding contributions during the Awards Lunch and Awards Banquet.
Oak Street Manufacturing was recognized during Tuesday's Vendor Lunch and again during the Awards Banquet in front of fellow vendors, Pizza Ranch franchisees, restaurant managers, and Pizza Ranch Support Center staff.
"Oak Street Manufacturing has played an important role in the growth and success of Pizza Ranch for more than 30 years," said Pizza Ranch President and Founder Adrie Groeneweg. "Tom Baag and his team have consistently delivered quality products, dependable service, and innovative solutions that have helped create the Pizza Ranch experience our guests know and love. We are honored to recognize Oak Street Manufacturing as our Vendor of the Year."
