Thanks to Blue Ribbon Supply`s amazing customers, our success and growth over the past 64+ years have led us to be a true solution provider.

What exactly does Blue Ribbon mean? Well, the blue ribbon is a universal symbol of high quality. The association comes from The Blue Riband, a prize awarded for the fastest crossing of the Atlantic Ocean by passenger liners and, prior to that from Cordon Bleu, which referred to the blue ribbon worn by a French knightly order. In the United States, ribbons of this color came to be awarded for first place in certain athletic or other competitive endeavors. We like to think Blue Ribbon Supply is in first place with all our customers.
