Ely Would Be Proud
Congrats to Callaway Golf Company (ELY: NYSE) for winning the 2006 Better Business Bureau International Torch Award for Marketplace Ethics, topping a field of more than 1,000 international businesses. The company won in the largest division, Category 1, based on businesses with 1,000 or more employees.
This past fall, Callaway Golf also won top honors in the San Diego Better Business Bureau's (BBB) 2005 Torch Award for Marketplace Ethics for the third time in five years, which made it eligible for the international competition.
The BBB International Torch Award recognizes the long-term value of honest and honorable business practices. The finalists for the 2006 International Torch Award came from the more than 1,000 businesses honored in local Torch Award competitions, which were narrowed to the 100 that qualified for entry at the international level.
