Motz Honored as a Best Evergreen Company by the Tugboat Institute

We are thrilled to announce that Motz has been recognized as a Best Evergreen Company by the Tugboat Institute. This prestigious honor reflects our unwavering commitment to building a sustainable and enduring business that prioritizes long-term growth and positive community impact.

The Tugboat Institute’s Best Evergreen Companies are celebrated for their dedication to seven core principles: Purpose, Perseverance, People First, Private, Profit, Paced Growth, and Pragmatic Innovation. These principles align perfectly with our values at Motz, where we strive to create a lasting legacy through our work in sports fields and leisure spaces.

A Commitment to Purpose and People

At Motz, our purpose goes beyond delivering high-quality products and services. We strive to “move people to better lives.” Through our purpose arm, Motz Moves, we empower our employee owners and those around us to support our communities by creating a positive, lasting change. We believe in the ripple effect, the one act of kindness or inspiration can evoke curiosity and lead to a chain reaction of transformation. Our team has collectively volunteered over 8,000 hours and donated more than $70,000 to various local, national, and international charities since 2018. This recognition by the Tugboat Institute underscores our commitment to putting people first and fostering a culture of giving back.

Embracing Perseverance and Pragmatic Innovation

The journey to becoming a Best Evergreen Company is not without its challenges. Our success is a testament to the perseverance and resilience of our team, who continuously strive for excellence in every project we undertake. By embracing pragmatic innovation, we have been able to develop cutting-edge solutions that meet the evolving needs of our clients while staying true to our core values.

Focused on Paced Growth and Profit

We believe in the importance of paced growth and maintaining a balance between expansion and stability. Our approach ensures that we can continue to provide exceptional service and quality to our clients while securing a profitable future for our company. This recognition from the Tugboat Institute reaffirms our commitment to sustainable growth and long-term success.

A Private Company with a Public Heart

As an Employee-Owned company, we have the freedom to make decisions that align with our mission and values. This independence allows us to focus on what truly matters – our people, our clients, and our community. Being honored as a Best Evergreen Company highlights the positive impact we can make as a private entity with a public heart.

The Power of Relationships and Connections

We are incredibly proud to be named a Best Evergreen Company by the Tugboat Institute. This recognition inspires us to continue our mission of building lasting value for our clients and communities. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated team, loyal clients, and supportive community partners who have played a crucial role in our journey.

We couldn’t be listed as an honoree without the shared best practices from the other companies in the Tugboat Institute community. While the principles are the backbone framework, the relationships and connections we’ve built are the true benefits of being involved in this community. These relationships have provided us with invaluable insights, support, and collaboration opportunities that have significantly contributed to our success.

"Being recognized as a Best Evergreen Company by the Tugboat Institute is a tremendous honor for Motz. This award is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team. It reinforces our commitment to sustainable growth, community impact, and the values that drive our company. We are excited to continue our journey, creating positive change and building a legacy that will endure for generations."
