The Shore Builders Association of Central New Jersey has honored Kokes Properties with its most prestigious award, recognizing the firm’s commitment to the organization as well as its positive impact on the local industry.
The Brielle-based developer said it received the 2022 Builders Employing Associate Members or BEAM Award during the organization’s annual FAME Awards ceremony in Freehold, which drew more than 200 attendees. The accolade comes just over a decade after Kokes’ predecessor, The Kokes Organization, received it in 2012.
“I am extremely proud and honored to accept the BEAM Award on behalf of Kokes Properties,” said Michael J. Kokes, the firm’s president. “Starting with my grandfather over 40 years ago, my family has always supported and valued the Shore Builders Association’s mission, and to be recognized as this year’s recipient is especially surreal and humbling for me on a personal level.”
