SAGE Announces 2025 Rating Winners
SAGE honors top industry suppliers & decorators with A+ & A Rating Awards based on distributor ratings in SAGE Total Access.
SAGE is proud to once again recognize outstanding suppliers and decorators with its A+ and A rating awards, based on distributor ratings collected through SAGE Total Access, the company’s product research and business management platform.
This year, 942 companies earned the highly sought-after A+ rating, an increase of 5.25% from the prior year, while 180 companies were awarded an impressive A rating. Together, these top-performing businesses represent 46% of all active advantage and decorator members in the SAGE database. As part of SAGE’s partnership with PPAI, suppliers with A+ and A ratings are also eligible for the annual PPAI Supplier Star Awards.
“We are thrilled to acknowledge and celebrate our supplier and decorator partners who consistently exceed expectations, delivering exceptional service and upholding the highest standards of quality and integrity in our industry,” said Dana Porter, MAS, SAGE’s vice president of information services.

According to the company, the SAGE rating system gives distributors the tools to make well-informed decisions by providing access to valuable data. Distributors can view a supplier or decorator’s real-time ratings and comments through SAGE Online and SAGE Web, along with a detailed summary of any awards and industry accolades.
Distributors can submit ratings through SAGE Total Access or via a “Rate Us” link provided by suppliers and decorators, scoring factors such as customer service, delivery, and problem resolution, along with leaving detailed feedback. Each company can only be rated once by a distributor, but ratings can be updated at any time to reflect ongoing experiences, ensuring accuracy.
Award-winning companies will receive marketing materials to promote their A+ or A-rated status, including logos for use in catalogs, websites, and email signatures. For more information, recipients can contact their SAGE account advisor at 800-925-7243.
