Beltone Celebrates 85 Years of Changing Lives & Being Named One of America’s Best Customer Service in Hearing Care for 2025

CHICAGO, March 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Beltone, one of America’s leading hearing care providers, proudly commemorates 85 years of changing 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.” This mission ignited a passion for innovation and patient care that has driven Beltone ever since.

Over the decades, Beltone has evolved into a pioneer in the hearing care industry, consistently 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 to excellence has earned Beltone significant accolades, including being named one of America’s Best in Customer Service for Hearing Care 2025 by Newsweek for the third consecutive year. This prestigious recognition, along with countless awards for service and technology, reflects Beltone’s commitment to delivering exceptional care and cutting-edge solutions to its valued patients.
