This award, presented annually by the Manufacturer’s Association of Florida (MAF), is given to a manufacturer who demonstrates leadership in all areas of its business.

The award was announced December 4, 2014 at the MAF Manufacturer’s Summit in Destin, Florida. Prior winners include Lockheed Martin, Harris Corporation and Johnson and Johnson.
This latest award is one of many won by the Nautique team over the past several years.

“We have an amazing team at Nautique; I am so incredibly proud of them for winning this award. There are many world class manufacturers in Florida and the examination of our operations was rigorous; to be selected as the best in the State is a real tribute to a special group of people who make up the Nautique team,” stated Nautique President and CEO, Bill Yeargin. “We have a very unique and amazing culture at Nautique (and all our Correct Craft companies); I appreciate the work done by the MAF and their recognition of both our team and what we have built at Nautique!” Yeargin added.
