RED OAK, Iowa - ­­­­­­U.S. Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa), Chair of the Senate Small Business Committee, today announced her Small Business of the Week: Staats Awards of Henry County. Throughout the 119th Congress, Chair Ernst plans to recognize a small business in each of Iowa's 99 counties.

"For over 100 years, Staats Awards has been helping Iowans and communities nationwide celebrate achievement, truly taking top honors as a leader in the awards and recognition industry," said Chair Ernst. "From ribbons and rosettes to trophies and plaques, Staats deserves a standing ovation as one of the most respected names in their field."

Founded in 1898 by E.G. Staats and now owned by the Patten and Webster families, Staats Awards offers a variety of recognition awards and promotional materials for fairs, livestock shows, organizations, and businesses.

Guided by the motto, "Small Town Values, World Class Quality," Staats and its staff of more than 20 employees combine hardworking Midwestern values with products that recognize achievement, inspire employees, and promote organizational missions.
