Pioneer Services' Fort Hood office chosen as one of 'The Very Best in Central Texas'
Killeen Daily Herald reader's poll cites office among best places to get a loan in region

KILLEEN, TEXAS (Jul 15, 2010) The Fort Hood Pioneer Services' office was honored recently when a reader's poll in the Killeen Daily Herald, the area's 100-year old daily newspaper, named the company one of the best places to get a loan in the Central Texas region. The annual "Central Texas' 100 Best" poll is an opportunity for the community to vote on where they go to find the region's best products and services. The 2010 winners were announced in the June 27, 2010, edition of the daily publication.

"We are honored that the community chose Pioneer Services as one of the best places for Fort Hood service members and military families to get a loan," said Romy Mortel, branch manager of Pioneer Services' Fort Hood office. "Our primary mission is to improve the quality of life for military families and support the community, so it's nice to know that our associates' hard work is appreciated and recognized, not only by our customers, but by the broader community as well."

The poll, initially launched in May, asked readers to complete a write-in ballot telling the newspaper where to find the best businesses and services in more than 100 categories, and generated nearly 6,000 responses. Winners receive a certificate of recognition and a banner to display at their establishment that highlights the honor.
