JMX Brands, the largest online retailer of Amish furniture at www.dutchcrafters.com, presented Steve Doe with the Category Manager Award at the company’s annual awards ceremony. This award was implemented to recognize the hard work of one category manager, which is a crucial role in the company’s success. 

Doe joined JMX Brands in 2018 as a furniture specialist and became a category manager with responsibility of the dining room category in 2019. At the ceremony, Product Management and Innovation Assistant Manager Natalie Campos highlighted Doe’s “tremendous attention to detail and exceptional vendor relationship skills.” 

“In 2021 his leading niche of dining tables produced a gross margin of 36.1 percent, far beyond the target goal,” said Campos. 

The University of South Florida alum also serves as the chairperson for the sustainability committee at JMX Brands and led the initiative to install solar panels at the DutchCrafters headquarters and showroom in Sarasota, Fla. 

“He has been instrumental in pushing forward with our core value of sustainability by leading projects for the sustainability committee,” said Campos. 

Doe previously served on the family and events committee, participated in JMX Brands’ gardening club, and won the Work Without Veneers award, which is given quarterly to a JMX Brands employee who embodies the company’s core values of authenticity, sustainability, creativity, giving and excellence.
