  Mr. HILL. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the companies 
ECOJOHN and Leather Brothers, recipients of the Governor's Award for 
Excellence in Global Trade.
  This award recognizes companies that have experienced success in 
international markets and hold high standards of exporting excellence.
  ECOJOHN is a manufacturing company from North Little Rock, 
specializing in wastewater management solutions.
  Leather Brothers are third-generation leather workers from Conway who 
manufacture high quality pet products.
  Both of these companies overcame adversity caused by the COVID-19 
pandemic and continued to succeed in a global market.
  I am proud of our local companies, their success, and their impact on 
our global markets.
