SAN DIEGO, Nov. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ken and Tina Jorgensen and Rachel and Kameron Weston, owners of PostalAnnex #15016 in Colorado Springs, CO, were recognized with one of the highest honors presented within the Annex Brands franchise system, receiving the Crystal Award during the company’s 2026 National Convention held October 1-3 at the South Point Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.
The Crystal Award recognizes franchise owners who generated for the first time more than $5 million in cumulative gross sales.
This year, 11 locations across four Annex Brands franchise concepts were recognized with the Crystal Award, celebrating franchisees who achieved this significant milestone through sustained business growth and operational excellence.
“Receiving the Crystal Award is an extraordinary accomplishment and represents years of dedication, consistency and commitment to excellence,” said Patrick Edd, Chief Executive Officer & President of Annex Brands. “The success achieved by Ken, Tina, Rachel and Kameron reflects not only strong business performance, but also the trust built within the community and the lasting relationships developed with customers over many years. This achievement demonstrates what’s possible when franchise owners remain focused on delivering exceptional service and creating long-term value for their customers.”
The award was presented during Annex Brands’ annual awards ceremony, where more than 100 franchise locations were recognized for outstanding performance across multiple categories. The Crystal Award is among the organization’s most prestigious recognitions, honoring franchisees who have demonstrated long-term success and sustained growth over an extended period.
“Achieving this award requires more than strong annual sales,” Edd added. “It reflects a decade of perseverance, adaptability and customer-focused leadership. The Jorgensen’s and Weston’s have built a business that consistently serves customers at a high level while contributing to the strength and success of the Annex Brands network.”
The 2026 National Convention welcomed its highest attendance on record, bringing together franchise owners, vendor partners and corporate leadership from across the Annex Brands network under the theme “Elevate.” The event featured educational workshops, business development sessions, networking opportunities and recognition programs celebrating franchisee accomplishments.
For the Jorgensen’s and Weston’s, the Crystal Award serves as a testament to ten years of dedication to customers, employees and the local community while maintaining a consistent standard of operational excellence.
