CORT Recognized with CHPA’s 2025 Tower of Excellence Award for Associate Partner of the Year

CHANTILLY, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CORT Business Services, the nation’s leading provider of furniture rental and transition services, is honored to receive the Corporate Housing Providers Association (CHPA) 2025 Tower of Excellence Award for Associate Partner of the Year. This recognition reflects the strength of our partnerships across the industry and reinforces the importance of service, adaptability, and collaboration in delivering furnished housing solutions.

The Tower of Excellence Associate Partner of the Year Award is presented to the company that demonstrates outstanding contributions to the corporate housing industry. For CORT, this honor is a reflection of the providers we serve, the trust they place in us, and the shared commitment we have to helping them create fully furnished, move-in-ready spaces that meet their clients’ needs.

“We are truly honored to be recognized by CHPA,” said Jeff Rowe, CORT Executive Vice President of Business Development. “The corporate housing industry is built on strong partnerships, and we’re grateful to play a supporting role in the success of our clients. This award is not just about CORT—it’s about the providers we work alongside every day and the collective effort to make furnished housing solutions as seamless as possible.”

What This Recognition Represents for Our Industry:

  • Stronger, More Responsive Service – Corporate housing providers rely on trusted partnerships to deliver consistent, high-quality housing solutions. We remain committed to being a reliable extension of their teams, adapting to their needs as the industry evolves.
  • Seamless Solutions Through Collaboration – Tools like CORT Connect help providers streamline operations while maintaining a personal touch. Our goal is to support efficiency without losing sight of the human connections that define this industry.
  • A Shared Commitment to Advocacy & Sustainability – Through CHPA leadership, industry sponsorships, and our commitment to responsible supply chain practices, we continue to work alongside providers to address key industry challenges.
  • Community Impact Beyond Housing – This year, we continued our long-standing support of Move For Hunger, and to date, CORT has donated over $500,000 and helped deliver 400,000 pounds of food to local food banks across the country. This equates to an estimated 500,000 meals to those in need. In 2024 we made all CORT Furniture Outlets, food donation stations, making it easier for our customers to donate food. Additionally, we launched the Matt Was Memorial Golf Tournament, honoring a valued member of our community and raising funds for cancer research.

The award was presented at the CHPA Connect25 Gala, where industry leaders came together to celebrate excellence in corporate housing.

“This award is not just about us—it’s about the entire corporate housing community,” added Jeff Reich, CORT Senior Vice President-National Accounts. “We’re proud to serve this industry and will continue working alongside our partners to provide the best possible solutions for their clients.”
