H.B. Macey, President of Temple-based Perry Office Plus, was named Young Executive of the Year in the 12th North American Office Products Awards (NAOPA) in November. 

The awards are organized by Office Products International, and were presented during Industry Week, a gathering of North American business supplies vendors and independent distributors in Las Vegas, hosted by Independent Suppliers Group.

Janet Bell with OPI said the panel of judges commented that they were impressed by the fantastic work that H.B. Macey does at Perry Office Plus, and that they are looking forward to watching H.B. evolve into a leader of the future.

“We are in challenging times, and we need leadership and innovation more than ever,” Bell said. “And the judges thought H.B. Macey demonstrated this.”

H.B.’s father and predecessor, Harry Macey, was in attendance to present the award. Harry & Debbie owned and operated Perry Office Plus for 27 years until retiring and selling the business to H.B. and his wife Lynnsay at the end of 2021. The younger Macey was named President in 2021 after serving as the Business Development Manager for several years.

Upon acceptance of the award, H.B. stated, “Honestly, this is not an H.B. award. This is a Perry Office Plus award. We have the best group of employees, we have a long-tenured management team, and they make me look good.”

He also encouraged the dealers in attendance to prepare their businesses for the future with a succession plan, rather than selling out to the big box stores.

“Empower the next generation in your business and get them involved,” he said.
