Larsen, an Aries representative for more than a quarter of a century, doubled his sales over 2009 and led all representative groups in both dollars sold and percentage increase over the previous year. Larsen also received the award in 2008 for exceptional sales in that year. He attributes his growth to Aries' outstanding customer service, pricing and products.

"Our continued business growth is fueled by the high quality and selection of products Aries offers at reasonable prices," says Larsen. "The strong relationships we have with our customers are thanks to the strong relationship we have with Aries. We couldn't have one without the other. We are honored to work with a company that takes such pride in its products."

William Sinclair, Aries' president and CEO, added, "Our representative network is an outgrowth of our own internal customer service practices, which are an important part of our business. Winning this award twice in three years is testament to Roy's continued commitment to providing excellent service to our customers and we commend him for that."

To determine the award recipient, Aries analyzes the sales data achieved by each member of its representative network. The honoree is the member with the best overall increase in sales as compared to the previous year.
