Nissan Forklift Corporation, North America proudly announces their President's Award winner for 2007.

Introduced in 1990, the President's Award was conceived to pay special recognition to a single Nissan dealership which embodies the essential characteristics found in the most successful organizations today. Their success is measured and achieved through a culture that embraces principles such as honor, respect and quality.

This prestigious award can only be earned by a dealership that has reached the highest tier of success in equipment sales, parts sales and service excellence. It represents Nissan Forklift's highest honor and most challenging achievement.

M&L Industries, LLC of Houma, Louisiana is the recipient of Nissan Forklift's President's Award for the third time in the dealership's long history with Nissan Forklift. They received their first honor in 2001, then again in 2005. This most recent achievement comes as M&L prepares to celebrate their 35th anniversary as a Nissan dealer.

For more than 50 years, M&L has proudly served the Louisiana market. For three and a half decades, they've consistently made considerable contributions to the Nissan brand, finding support for such accomplishments through a perfect blend of leadership and team spirit.

For M&L Industries, success is driven by its passion for delivering customer service excellence. And its walls are emblazoned with awards that offer tribute to them. The tremendous success of this dealership's service organization has been celebrated by receiving Nissan's prestigious S.E.P. Gold award 11 times. In addition, this organization has been recognized as one of Nissan's elite Nissan Nine award winners many times throughout their history as a loyal Nissan dealer. They are highly regarded by Nissan Forklift and respected by their peers for their endless sales achievements in both new equipment and spare parts.

Congratulations to M&L Industries for their outstanding accomplishments for the year 2007, and sincere wishes for their continued success.
