“The Exchange truly understands the military lifestyle and supports spouses like me every step of the way,” the Military Clothing store manager says.
During fiscal 2024, Exchange shoppers donated more than $1.6 million to Army Emergency Relief (AER). AER Chief Executive Officer Michael A. “Tony” Grinston showed his appreciation by recognizing several associates during recent Exchange visits.
During 2024, contributions to Army Emergency Relief, the Air Force Assistance Fund and the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society increased 7.1% from 2023.
First-, second- and third-place winners were chosen for achieving the highest attachment rates. One store achieved a 21.64% attach rate.
The awards are presented to the Exchange and the main stores in four categories with the highest reduction in recordable accidents compared with the previous year.
The top store for the year earned a $1,000 prize and the coveted Challenge Cup.
The awards went to Exchanges who excel at serving those who serve and providing tastes of home.
Winners are selected based on criteria including earnings, MILITARY STAR® usage, gross margin return on investment and inventory variance.
One Exchange in each size category (mega, large, medium and small) received the award, which goes to the top Exchanges worldwide.
