BERGEN COUNTY, NJ, UNITED STATES, September 24, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Brand Force 5, a Bergen County, New Jersey–based branding and design agency, celebrated a night to remember at the NJ Ad Club’s Jersey Awards on Wednesday. The Jersey Awards are the state’s most competitive stage for design and creativity, drawing entries from the biggest agencies and businesses. Out of seven projects Brand Force 5 submitted, six made it into the finals and were honored, an achievement that speaks not only to the quality of the work but also to the consistency and the heart behind it.

For founder and Chief Creative Officer Michael P. Maloney, the recognition goes far beyond trophies and titles.
“Every award we bring home is really a reflection of our clients’ courage to take risks with us. Six wins in one night is exciting, but what it really means is six stories that we got to tell and told well, and that’s the part that matters.”



Award-Winning Work

Among the six honored entries were projects that reflect the diversity of Brand Force 5’s work and the trust clients placed in the agency. In both the Logo Design and Brochure Design categories, Brand Force 5 was competing against itself, ultimately taking home both First Place and Second Place honors in those categories.

The perfect modern mark for a business that is more than a pizzeria and honors family tradition.

• Water & Stone, Second Place, Logo Design
A unique icon representing both a pool and a trowel, blending elegance with craftsmanship.

• Floor Coverings International, First Place, Brochure Design
A handheld guide that works harder than a business card.

• Brand Force 5 Self-Promotion Piece, Second Place
A showcase of the agency’s personality, values, and award-winning portfolio.



For clients, these wins are more than recognition, they’re a reflection of the impact Brand Force 5 can create for it's clients. Partnering with the agency means gaining more than just design services, it means collaborating on logos, brochures, and websites that don’t just resonate with customers but carry meaning on a larger scale. Award-winning work isn’t just about the trophies, it delivers greater exposure, stronger connections, and lasting recognition for the clients.


After the results were announced, Maloney, wearing a tailored three-piece suit in a brilliant blue that drew more than a few compliments, reflected on what it meant to compete at such a high level.
“Competing against the biggest and best and still taking home six wins? Including in two categories where we were up against ourselves? To be honest, second place looks pretty good when you’re also in first.”
