Given at the discretion of the CTI management team to reward meritorious behavior, the award can be given as they occur or “on the spot”.

COCHRANE TECHNOLOGIES, INC DONATES GIFTS FOR CHRISTMAS

As the Christmas holidays are upon us many are out shopping and wishing all season’s greetings and spreading joyful cheer. And this year, as with many years in the past, Cochrane Technologies took this joyful cheer to another level by adopting a family from Faith House to give a mother and her 3 children a wonderful Christmas this year. CTI requested from Faith House a letter to Santa from each family member with details of particular gifts each member wanted. Upon receiving the letters, a team of Cochrane employees went out and purchased everything on the list from toys to clothing to appliances and games. Our employees expressed such joy they had in being part of this wonderful event. On Wednesday December 14, 2011 CTI presented the director and coordinator of Faith House the gifts, along with wrapping paper, for them to bring to the mother of the children so she could wrap and give the gifts to her children on Christmas Day. What a joyous time for this mother to have gifts to give her children and to see the wonderful smiles on their faces when they realize Santa gave them all they wished for.

Cochrane Technologies Exhibits at LAGCOE 2011

As this year’s LAGCOE (Louisiana Gulf Coast Oil Exhibition) closes, one can not help but feel the optimism that was evident at the trade show. This upbeat feeling sparked a positive feeling in the air regarding business for next year. Many exhibitors were showing off new products and services. This was one of the largest and best shows I can remember in my last 30 years of participation. We saw many of our customers and old friends.

Many of our customers came by to visit our booth and shared their positive feeling about next year.

As usual the LAGCOE staff did an exceptional job with this year’s show.
