The staff is so friendly and accommodating. They were able to engrave a gift for me within a days notice and did such a beautiful job ! I would highly recommend them.

I can not say enough, I brought Aran a very special (large) item that I needed engraved, not only could they do it, they helped with the setup to be even better than I expected. The price was more than reasonable I feel and was done in a timely fashion for being such a unique piece. I will be telling everyone using them any time I need engraving.

I sent an email request to place an order for name plates, on October 20th at 1:28 pm. By 1;30 pm that day the order was placed and I got an email that my order would be shipped the next day. Exemplary customer service. I would highly recommend Aran Awards & Engraving to anyone looked to hire this type of service. Can not verbalize enough how impressed I am with their services

We recently did business with Aran for the first time. My contact person was Anne and she was amazing! The process was quick, the pricing was fair and I got exactly what was promised. In an age where customer service and reliability seem to be waning, this does not seem to be the case at Aran. Thanks to Anne from your new friends at PHS! We would highly recommend!

Used Aran Trophies last year for a friend golf tournament we do every year and wanted to add a trophy for the winner every year. They were amazing with their communication and just overall want to help pick the right fit for us. Now I’m working with them on a charity event I run and a few attendees from last year’s event have also reached out and have had amazing things to say! Wouldn’t recommend anyone else in Ontario over Aran Trophies!
