June 30, 2026 // Franchising.com // TAMPA, Fla. – Proforma, the largest family-owned and operated technology and business success leader in the print and promotional products industry, is proud to announce it has been named a Northeast Ohio Top Workplace, a recognition reserved for companies that set the standard for workplace excellence.
This honor follows Proforma’s recent achievement of eight Top Workplaces Cultural Excellence Awards, reinforcing its ongoing commitment to employee engagement and empowerment. Proforma operates two Support Center locations in North America—Tampa and Cleveland—home to nearly 200 team members who uphold a shared culture.
“We believe that when people feel supported and valued, they do their best work,” said Vera Muzzillo, CEO of Proforma. “Being recognized as a Top Workplace reflects the strong, people-first environment our team has built together.”
Top Workplaces are determined through a research-backed employee engagement survey that gathers feedback directly from employees about their experiences. The survey features questions designed to capture authentic, well-rounded responses. 95% of participants shared that Proforma is headed in the right direction, operates with strong values, and would highly recommend working at Proforma to others. 97% expressed confidence in the leadership team.
“This award is especially meaningful because it reflects the perspectives of those who know Proforma best—our team members,” said Kathy Mayo, Vice President of Human Resources at Proforma. “We are committed to providing the resources, support, and opportunities they need to thrive in their careers.”
Since its founding, Proforma has prioritized investing in its people. Professional development offerings include more than 100 on-demand training courses, annual service initiatives, networking opportunities, and programs designed to support team members at every stage of their careers.
