Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback recognized our customer Galaxy Technologies of Winfield with the Governor’s Award of Excellence and Kansas Aviation of Independence with the Governor’s Exporter of the Year Award at the annual Team Kansas Awards Banquet in Wichita on Tuesday.

The two awards are the state’s top business honors and are the culmination of Business Appreciation Month, the Department’s annual statewide tribute to Kansas businesses for their contributions to the state. The event is sponsored the Kansas Department of Commerce and Team Kansas, a group of business leaders who promote the state as a desirable business location.

“Congratulations to Galaxy Technologies and Kansas Aviation of Independence,” Kansas Commerce Secretary Pat George said. “We received many great nominations this year for the Governor’s Award of Excellence and the Governor’s Exporter of the Year award. After a competitive nomination and selection process, these two companies have been recognized for their outstanding contributions to our economy and their communities.”
