PrideStaff Fresno, Modesto, and Visalia Offices Named Eight-Time Best Staffing Agency Winners in The Fresno Bee’s Best of Central California

June 5, 2023

Proof of their unrivaled success in connecting job seekers with great employment opportunities, PrideStaff, a nationally franchised staffing organization, is pleased to announce that their Fresno, Visalia, and Modesto offices were recently named Best Staffing Agencies in The Fresno Bee’s 2023 Best of Central California Awards.

Designed to recognize the best businesses, organizations, and people in their market, the Best of Central California list has evolved over the past nineteen years from a simple contest to an eagerly awaited annual event that is part of the Fresno area’s culture. Each year, The Fresno Bee readers vote online for their favorite employers in more than 290 categories, ranging from employment agencies and accounting firms to bicycle shops and art galleries.

“It’s thrilling to be recognized as a ‘Gold’ company by the hardworking people of the valley, and I’d like to share this win with my incredible Fresno and Modesto teams,” said Sean Akin, Vice-President of Branch Operations for PrideStaff Fresno and Modesto. “They have risen to the challenge of today’s tough recruiting market—continuously adapting to the changing needs of employers and job seekers—and been successful at making rewarding employment connections. Thank you to all of the readers who voted for us; we’re honored to be recognized by those we serve.”

“The last few years have been hard on a lot of people in the greater Visalia area. But by helping people find work, connecting employers with the talent they need, and ensuring each person we interact with has a positive experience with PrideStaff, we’ve helped our local economy recover—and thrive,” stated Blanca Covarrubias, Owner/Strategic-Partner of PrideStaff Visalia. “Being named a top staffing agency in Central California reassures us that we’re doing the right things. In the years ahead, we look forward to continuing to live Our Mission to ‘Consistently provide client experiences focused on what they value most.'”

This latest honor comes on the heels of several other awards and achievements for the Fresno, Visalia, and Modesto offices. Earlier this year, PrideStaff Fresno was named a five-time winner of PrideStaff’s Office of the Year Award, for being the top-performing office in the franchise’s system of more than 80 locations nationwide, and all three offices achieved President’s Circle Awards for being top producers in revenue and profits in 2022. These offices were also named to The Business Journal’s 2022 Best of Central Valley Business List in the Best Employment Service category for an eighth consecutive year.
