Acting on the belief that champions deserve nothing less, SARTONK has elevated "the belt" to a work of art. 
Featured in ESPN The Magazine in 2013, and, most recently, a recipient of a FedEx Small Business Grant award, SARTONK has gained international recognition not only for its expertise, but also, its company philosophy, which is based on integrity, community, and social contribution. SARTONK's annual Ali-King Award encourages critical thinking and writing among boxing's youth. While maintaining its high standards of design and craftsmanship, SARTONK uses its position in the boxing industry as a force for good.

Quote from President Edward S. Majian :
  
" I strongly believe in the vision of the Box Fan Expo. Such an event is long overdue, and SARTONK is proud to be a part of the inaugural expo. This is all about community"
