Bernie Reed, president and CEO of Reed’s Metals, was recently honored with the CEO award of Mississippi 2015 at the Old Capitol Inn in Jackson — an awards program through the Mississippi Business Journal.
“I’m so honored and humbled. We’ve come so far since we started in 1998 out of a little shed in Lawrence County. We used to cut metal back then with a hand shear, and now we have eight locations serving the Southeast U.S. I’m very grateful,” Reed said.
Reed’s Metals is a metal manufacturer specializing in metal roofing, metal buildings and pole barns. The company was also recently listed in the “Mississippi 100” — the state’s top privately owned companies.
Each year, the Mississippi Business Journal recognizes leaders around the state of Mississippi who demonstrate excellence among the top executives in their field — the CEOs whom have helped their companies achieve strong growth and success, and have made a profound impact on their company and community. Honorees are selected in categories of Nonprofit CEOs, Rising Stars, Large Companies, Medium Companies and Small Companies.
