Aron Trophies was our go-to for a plaque. I was familiar with their expertise dealing with graduation plaques and trophies in the past for our elementary school. Anne was efficient and friendly and our order was completed in a week. I highly recommend this awards and engraving business. There is a great selection and pricing is quite fair.

We reached out because we wanted to know if they would be able to help us with our search. Anne responded quickly to my email and made the entire process easy and streamlined. She was friendly, professional and knowledgable and responsive. We ordered from them and will definitely recommend them and order from them again for all our awards and trophies going forward. Great customer service is hard to find and once you find it... you never want to let it go!

More like 10 stars. I would like to thank the whole team at Aran Awards & Engraving. Not only have they made what seemed like an impossible Christmas wish come true, they also treat you with amazing customer service.
I went in on a whim and a prayer hoping that a wish from my son for a trophy stating " the best player in roblox steal a brain rot" could be done. Let me tell you Anne... You are an angel! She embraced the challenge and took weight off my shoulders 😊 and said "We can do it no problem" and the next day i received an email that it was ready for pick up. Truly an amazing business.

I was introduced to Aran Trophies back in the 70's. They supplied the league I organized with top quality workmanship. A family run business, from father to daughter, they provide a vast variety of items for any needs you have. I recommend them and wouldn't go any place else.

Service was excellent !! I needed a number plate made for my 1934 Gamewell fire alarm box restoration. The lady at the front desk was awesome in helping me find the style of numbers that I needed for my restoration project, the number plate looks original to the firebox. I will definitely be using Aran again for any of my projects. Thanks again to everyone at Aran Awards & 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!

I needed 2 Yetti cups engraved quickly. I called them and they said they could get it done for me in the timeframe I needed. Dropped them off and got a call the SAME DAY notifying me that they were all done! They were exactly the way I wanted them. The staff were so helpful in getting the logo just right and they turned out perfectly! Highly recommend Aran Awards & Engraving for anything you need!

Had the team at Aran help engrave a baseball bat for hitting a milestone is sales. They did such a wonderful job with it. They can engrave almost everything and are local which made things easier. Can’t wait to put it up on the wall of accomplishments. Thank you team Aran Trophies for all your help and professionalism. That was very quick.

I ordered custom shot glasses and told them exactly what I wanted and they made it happen. The process of choosing fonts and spacing was very easy and guided by the employee helping me. The turn around time was very reasonable. I recommend.
