Having dealt in both the US and Canadian Markets, I have had the opportunity to see two very different sides of the wholesale business. As a manufacturers rep for quality companies such as the Morris Group of Companies (MGI) including Acorn Engineering, JR Smith, Murdock Mfg. This along with other reputable companies like Delta Faucet, Brasscraft, Aquaglass, Rheem, Mansfield, etc....has allowed me to understand the importance of being looked at as a "Value Added" partner. This tag line was not only important to the contractors and distributors, but the manufacturers as well. Certainly having wholesale distribution support in carrying your products was paramount, however without creating the "Pull through" business at the various channels including contractor, engineer, and owner our success would have been greatly diminished. Without these key components in place, the support from the distributors would have been much more challenging. Having created lasting and meaningful relationships above and beyond the typical 9-5 working relationships also was very important for our growth. Other key areas of importance such as inventory levels, showroom, counter business, on time delivery, competitive pricing, top notch customer service levels, and associate growth is a big task. It takes a lot of dedicated and industry savvy people to run a successful organization. The stronger the team the more success everyone enjoyed. These experiences along with a burning passion for the business, and working with great people is what I enjoy so much about this industry.
