Reinke Achieving Vendor Excellence (RAVE) Award: Recognizing Trusted Partnerships

Lincoln Plastics is proud to announce that we have once again been recognized by Reinke Manufacturing with a Reinke Achieving Vendor Excellence (RAVE) Award — an honor given annually to Reinke’s top-performing suppliers across North America.

This achievement reflects our continued commitment to quality, reliability, and strong supplier relationships. It also marks the fifth time Lincoln Plastics has earned this distinction — a milestone we are honored to celebrate together with our long-time partner.

A Supplier Relationship Built on Trust

Reinke awards its Top 10 vendors each year with the RAVE Award — recognizing companies that demonstrate excellence in on-time delivery, quality, accuracy, and overall relationship strength.

Being named one of Reinke’s top suppliers means we have met their rigorous standards of performance, responsiveness, and consistency — values that align closely with how we operate every day.

“We appreciate the team we work with at Lincoln Plastics,” said Jeff Joe, Director of Materials Management at Reinke Manufacturing. “We’re proud to honor their success and the solid partnership we’ve forged.”

Those words reflect exactly why this award means so much: it recognizes not just performance metrics, but the collaboration behind them.

A Proud Moment for Our Team

Long-Term Collaboration Through VMI

For many years, Lincoln Plastics has supported Reinke not only through dependable product quality but also through a successful Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) partnership.

Reinke provides us with real-time inventory data, enabling us to plan and supply exactly what they need, when they need it — ensuring consistent component availability throughout their seasonal manufacturing cycles.

This system continues to strengthen efficiency and communication on both sides — two keys to long-term supplier success.
