Beltone, is celebrating 85 years as a hearing care provider, helping improve many Americans’ lives through better hearing. Founded in 1940 in a modest building in Downtown Chicago, Beltone embarked on a mission to create a hearing aid that would enable a friend with hearing loss to hear as clearly as the “tone of a bell.”
Over the decades, Beltone has evolved with a focus on pushing the boundaries of what is possible in hearing innovations while maintaining a steadfast focus on the needs of individuals with hearing loss. This dedication has earned Beltone significant accolades, including being named one of America’s Best in Customer Service for Hearing Care 2025 by Newsweek, making this the third consecutive year for this honor.
The Newsweek America’s Best Customer Service 2025 rankings were identified from the results of an independent survey of customers who have either made purchases, used services, or gathered information about products or services in the past three years. The final assessment and rankings were based on the Likelihood of Recommendation, Quality of Communication, Professional Competence, Range of Services, Customer Focus, and Accessibility. The awards list can be viewed here.
This recognition by Newsweek, along with many other awards for service and technology, reflects Beltone’s commitment to delivering exceptional care and cutting-edge solutions to its valued patients, according to the company.
“I am filled with great pride and gratitude to be celebrating 85 years of Beltone,” says David Molella, president of Beltone North America. “This remarkable milestone not only reaffirms our commitment to transforming lives through better hearing but also represents the countless stories of individuals we’ve had the privilege to serve. Together, we have made a profound impact, and as a company, we remain dedicated to innovation and compassion, ensuring that every patient can experience the joy of sound and connection. Here’s to the next chapter in our journey!”
From a single location in 1940 Beltone has grown to approximately 1,200 locations nationwide and received global recognition for its accomplishments.
