Mark Miller Subaru Named Most Ethical Business at the Utah Ethical Leadership Awards

Nine Utah companies, nonprofits, and government agencies were honored at the third annual Utah Ethical Leadership Awards on September 9, 2016. Mark Miller Subaru was awarded the Most Ethical Business award. Who Gives the Award The awards are presented by the David Eccles School of Business Daniels Fund Ethics Initiative, the Daniels Fund, and the Community Foundation of Utah.
