Hansa and Arvind Savsani Honored with Crystal Award
Hansa and Arvind Savsani, the proud owners of AIM Mail Center #23 based in Fountain Valley, California, have been awarded one of the highest distinctions within the Annex Brands franchise system—the prestigious Crystal Award. This honor was conferred during the 2026 National Convention held from October 1 to 3 at the South Point Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
The Crystal Award is a recognition that celebrates franchise owners who have achieved over $5 million in cumulative gross sales for the first time. This year, a total of 11 franchise locations across four different concepts under Annex Brands were celebrated, a testament to their significant business growth and operational excellence.
Patrick Edd, the CEO and President of Annex Brands, expressed his congratulations, stating, "Receiving the Crystal Award is an extraordinary accomplishment and represents years of dedication, consistency, and commitment to excellence." Edd emphasized that the success Hansa and Arvind have achieved is not only a matter of robust business performance but also reflects the trust they have built within their community over many years. Their long-term relationships with customers have been fundamental to their success.
The award presentation occurred during a ceremony that recognized more than 100 franchise locations excelling in various performance categories. The Crystal Award is among the most respected acknowledgments within the franchise, honoring those who have demonstrated sustained growth and enduring success over time. Edd highlighted, “Achieving this award requires more than strong annual sales; it reflects a decade of perseverance, adaptability, and customer-focused leadership.” These qualities have allowed the Savsani brothers to build a business known for consistently high-level customer service while also contributing positively to the overall strength of the Annex Brands network.
Apart from honoring the Savsani brothers, the 2026 National Convention marked a record-high attendance, bringing together franchise owners, vendor partners, and corporate leadership from across the Annex Brands network. Under the theme “Elevate,” attendees were treated to educational workshops, business development sessions, networking opportunities, and various recognition programs spotlighting franchisee achievements.
For the Savsani brothers, receiving the Crystal Award represents a decade-long commitment to operational excellence and unwavering dedication to their customers and employees, as well as their local community. It stands as a symbol of their hard work and the positive impact they have made through their business.
