Local "Pawn Star" Receives National Recognition
Online, June 22, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Bob Moulton, owner of National Pawn, was named the 2011 National Pawnbroker of the Year by the National Pawnbrokers Association (NPA) on June 15, 2011 during the organization's annual convention. Moulton's clean, bright business model and his generous contributions to the community were cited in the presentation of the honor. Last year the title holder was Rick Harrison, of "Pawn Stars," fame.
"I am proud to be a pawnbroker, and I am very proud to receive this recognition from the national association of my peers," said Moulton. "I have made it a priority to improve the image of the pawn industry one customer at a time."
"Bob Moulton is a fine example of a modern, professional businessman in an industry that suffers from an outdated image. Bob has built a fine reputation on providing service and values to his customers, and is a leading innovator in the nation for changing the face of the pawn business" said Dave Crume, President of the National Pawnbrokers Association. "We are proud to have him as a member, and we are very pleased to award him the much deserved honor of the 2011 Pawnbroker of the Year."
In addition to operating eight National Pawn stores in Raleigh, Durham and Wilmington, Moulton believes in giving back to the communities where he does business. He gives generously, and funds many philanthropic efforts from providing cash donations and electronic entertainment devices to Duke Children's Hospital, to endowing annual scholarships for Triangle students and providing musical instruments to area middle school band programs.
