City of Brockton, MA
At first glance, the City of Brockton looks much like one of many leafy, green cities in the American northeast that are shaking out their feathers after the stresses of COVID-19. But, since meeting with three of its inspiring leaders, I am stuck on the theme song from the 1980s box office sensation, Rocky Balboa’s Eye of the Tiger – and the rich texture that this homespun community of almost 106,000 residents has created for itself – despite the global hardships of recent years.

At a time when consumers are valuing improved health alongside saving time and money, the company is packing a powerful punch in the restaurant and home cooking markets with innovations that tick all those boxes and more.
DAP America
DAP stands for more than Dürkopp Adler Pfaff. The acronym also reminds one of the Dutch word ‘dapper’ which far transcends its English variant’s sense of elegance and neatness to express boldness, strength, and sturdiness. This is exactly what DAP America, headquartered in Peachtree Corners, Georgia, displayed during the pandemic.
