Acceptance Speech quoted from Phil Ramos, Jr.:
"We at Philatron are extremely honored to be recognized as one of your
awardees, because we are a true blued manufacturer. And it is good that a
manufacturer be recognized in our country where we have lost so much of our
manufacturing infrastructure. I would like to share a little story with you.
With the Grace of God Philatron was founded by me in 1974 with less than
$200. We grew to a certain point and then I got burned out, because it was not
fun just making money just for me. At this period of my life I lost my
motivation to build and would escape from Philatron to the tennis courts. And
then a crisis would come and I would solve the crisis and then return to the
tennis courts. This was my routine until I discovered a revelation of a higher
purpose than just to serve myself!
Philatron could be used as an instrument to serve other things!!
-- To serve our employees and their families with steady and reliable
income.
-- To serve our customers with good value.
-- To serve our community with needed contributions.
-- And to serve our faith through stewardship.
After that REVELATION, I became re-energized and motivated, and since then
Philatron has grown to be one of the largest -- if not the largest --
manufacturer of electrical wire and cable in So. CA.
The bottom line is: It is in giving that we receive!
God bless all of you. Thank you so much!!"
