O.C. Tanner Unveils New Recognition Tools: Company Store and Manager Store

SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--O.C. Tanner, the global leader in employee recognition and rewards solutions, today announced the launch of new features within its Culture Cloud® platform: Company Store and Manager Store. These innovative capabilities enable organizations to further personalize, scale, and localize recognition efforts across all levels of the workforce.

“This new store function is essential for companies looking to make recognition tangible, immediate, and culturally resonant,” said Chief Product Officer Dave Hilton. “These tools help organizations ensure that praise isn’t just a sentiment—it’s visible, shareable, and relevant to every employee, while also making their brand more accessible to their workforce.”

Company Store is a branded merchandise storefront for employees to browse and acquire custom gear—hats, sweatshirts, and everyday essentials—enhancing identity, pride, and belonging across the organization. Branded recognition serves as a daily reminder of values and culture, reinforcing what the organization celebrates and stands for.

Manager Store is designed to help supervisors and team leads order branded merchandise, pins, certificates, collectibles, and awards through a custom online storefront. It ensures that recognition never runs out—especially for the 80% of employees who work offline or in distributed settings.

These new tools are part of a broader capability allowing organizations to create dedicated micro-stores for specific programs such as wellness, onboarding, safety, or sales contests. Each store can operate on its own budget and point bank, enabling targeted, localized recognition for all.

With the addition of Company Store and Manager Store, O.C. Tanner continues to expand the power and reach of Culture Cloud—helping organizations celebrate people in ways that feel meaningful and authentic. Together, these innovations make it easier for every employee to see, feel, and live their company’s culture, one act of recognition at a time.
