SLM Among NAMM 2015 Best in Show Winners

February 13th 2015

ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI – NAMM U’s “Best in Show” was back again for the 2015 NAMM show, highlighting the convention’s best companies and products in several categories. St. Louis Music was proud to walk away with a Best in Show: Companies to Watch award from NAMM U’s panel of judges.

“I think it’s important to focus on smaller companies and family owned companies,” says Myrna Sislen, NAMM U panelist. “ My company to watch is St. Louis Music because they are very receptive to us, are there to help us and they are very fast in turnaround. They’re really a good company.”

For Mark Ragin, President & CEO of St Louis Music, treating every music store with the utmost care and respect is something close to his heart. “It’s great to know we’re doing a good job looking after music people who are teaching our kids to play and instilling the benefit of making music into our communities, they are the real stars,” Ragin says. “We work hard at SLM to make sure that’s the case, and this award only inspires us to do even more”
