Shamrock’s reputation within the community, industry and nationally has been reinforced time and again through the numerous awards we have received. 2002 was a banner year in which Shamrock grew at an exponential rate. Growth was accompanied by recognition on several fronts.
As our employees will tell you, Shamrock is a great place to work. The Business Journal/Greater Triad confirmed this by recognizing the company as one of the Best Places to Work in 2002 based on our “Family Friendly” approach.
BDO Seidman, Mass Mutual, and Price Waterhouse Coopers all agreed that Shamrock is one of the fastest growing and best-managed companies in our industry and community. In 2002, we were the recipients of the 2002 Fifty Fastest Growing Companies in the Carolinas (BDO Seidman), 2002 Blue Chip Community Award (Mass Mutual), and 2002 Triad Top 25 Fastest Growing Privately Held Companies (Price Waterhouse Coopers).
James M. McGroarty, our President and CEO, was recognized as the 2002 Carolinas Entrepreneur of the Year. Mr. McGroarty was honored to be selected by Ernst & Young for this prestigious award out of a field of highly qualified men and women.
