FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MEMPHIS, Tenn., Nov. 1, 2025 — Memphis-based risk management firm CanopyNation earned the Top Employee Benefits Consultant Award from Mployer, the leading source for employee benefits research and analytics. Now in its fifth year, the award recognizes benefit brokerage offices nationwide that demonstrate exceptional performance and employer satisfaction in delivering employee benefits solutions. Mployer selects winners in nearly every state and major U.S. market.
“Employees are the backbone of any company’s success, and providing a company with the best solution for benefits is what aids in that success,” said Orma Smith, chief executive officer of CanopyNation. “As one of the few independently owned benefits brokerages still in the Mid-South, we strive to serve our clients with the utmost respect, professionalism and industry knowledge. We are grateful to Mployer for recognizing our team’s work with this coveted honor.”
Recipients of the Top Employee Benefits Consultant Award undergo an evaluation using Mployer’s proprietary M Score, which measures:
- Depth and breadth of experience across employer industries, sizes, and plan designs for each individual brokerage office.
- Employer ratings and feedback on satisfaction, responsiveness, and expertise of their broker partners and their own benefit programs.
Firms earning an M Score in the top 10% are selected as the year’s winners. CanopyNation has received the Top Employee Benefits Consultant Award every year since Mployer’s inaugural award program in 2021.
