Paris Companies and CEO, Dave Stern, were recently selected as members of the greater Pittsburgh area Smart 50 for 2014. Smart Business Magazine – a consortium of seventeen respected, regional business management journals – in conjunction with Chase, a leading U.S. consumer and commercial bank – annually present the Smart 50 awards in fifteen national regions.

The purpose of the local award program is to identify the smartest fifty organizations in the greater Pittsburgh area and to recognize the top executives of these awardees for their ability to effectively build and lead savvy organizations. 

An extensive application and interview process is used to select awardees.  The process is meant to highlight areas of excellence, not just success.  In speaking of his interview experience, Stern said: “Our growth in both revenue and profitability in a mature industry during the depressed economic environment of the last five years speaks more clearly than most anything I could have said.  Behind the numbers and alongside me is my talented senior staff with nearly one hundred years of industry experience.  The Paris leadership team is second to none.”
