Columbus, Ohio – March 6, 2020 – Kimball Midwest, a national industrial supplier based in Columbus, received five awards last week at the 2019 Achievement in Marketing Awards hosted by the American Marketing Association’s Columbus Chapter.

The company received three Gold Awards and two Silver Awards in the competition, which included entries from organizations around Central Ohio.

One Gold Award came in the New Product or Service Launch category, honoring Kimball Midwest’s July launch of the KM-USA High Head Grade 8 Cap Screw line. The launch included many communications efforts, including videos, blog posts, social media posts and email campaigns.

Kimball Midwest’s second Gold Award came in the Training or Corporate Video category, honoring the company’s Working America video campaign.

One Silver Award came in the Website category, recognizing a new strategy for visitors to kimballmidwest.com who express an interest in becoming a Kimball Midwest customer.
