SanMar Recognized as a 2024 US Best Managed Company

Issaquah, Wash. – May 6, 2024 – SanMar, a leading supplier of wholesale accessories and apparel, is proud to announce it has been selected as a 2024 US Best Managed company. Now in its fifth year, the award, sponsored by Deloitte* Private and The Wall Street Journal, recognizes the achievements of U.S. private companies and the successes of their management teams.

SanMar has been a family-owned business since its founding in 1971 and is currently managed by the third generation of the Lott family. The company’s longstanding investments in its employees, operations, and sustainability efforts, are key drivers for its selection as a 2024 US Best Managed company.

“We are humbled to receive this recognition,” said Jeremy Lott, CEO of SanMar. “I'm motivated by our team’s unwavering dedication to doing right by each other, our customers and our values."

US Best Managed Companies is part of a global Deloitte Private program. Honorees are selected by an external panel of judges who evaluate applicants based on strategy, ability to execute, culture, and governance and financial performance. SanMar joins an ecosystem of organizations from more than 44 countries.

About the Best Managed Companies Program

The Best Managed Companies program is a mark of excellence for private companies. U.S. designees have revenues of at least $250 million.
