SYMBOLIC AWARDS FOR LEADING INDUSTRIAL & AUTOMOTIVE OEMs
Recognition Your Workforce Can Hold Onto
A bonus gets spent. An app notification makes a moment, but not a memory. A custom Symbolic award gets displayed on a desk, worn on the shop floor, shared on social media, and talked about for decades.
Made in America since 1918, Terryberry's high-caliber recognition awards that uniquely represent your brand and stand the test of time—because tangible recognition isn’t just a perk. It’s proof of your employees' hard work. Proof that work is seen and celebrated.
Digital platform notifications highlight recognition in the moment, but shift workers and plant personnel won't remember every alert. An award they’ve earned with their hands? That they see or wear it day in and day out.
Terryberry data shows employees are 3x more likely to remember positive workplace experiences when symbolic awards are part of the program—and organizations incorporating tangible recognition see a 12% boost in overall employee engagement.
A physical award may be the only recognition that truly reaches and drives long-term performance for frontline, deskless, and long tenured workers—the people least likely to open an app or check a digital feed.

A Partner, Not a Vendor
“Terryberry helps us show our employees that we care about them, that their work has purpose, and that they're not just another cog in the machine.”
Dan N., VP of Talent Development
at Major Heavy Equipment Dealership
That focus on true partnership—prioritizing meaningful employee impact over pushing scope or upselling oversized catalogs—is what enterprise manufacturing and automotive leaders tell us sets Terryberry apart.
When multi-site organizations switch to Terryberry Symbolic Awards,they don't just upgrade the awards employees receive; they consolidate spend, simplify logistics across locations, and build genuine pride.
