Welcome to this edition of The UPI Conduit. Like before, we feature a calendar of events, a Supplier of the Month, our current line card, and notes about our progress. We previously said that we have been and continue to change our Supplier base to enhance product offerings for our Customers. We’ve done some of that and have some more underway. In looking at our line card on the reverse of this page, you’ll see that we’ve expanded our relationship with the Aervoe Pacific family of companies which includes Crown® chemical products and Athena lighting products as listed, along with Zynolyte® metal coatings and the MAXBurton®, MasterGlow®, and SolaDyne® products of Athena®. Also new to the listings is US Tape, who manufactures quality measuring wheels and tapes, and has done so since 1876! Of special note is that we now have an alliance with Southern Utility Repair for quick turnaround of repairs on hydraulic and battery-operated as well as some manual tools, and also provides access to the Stucchi line of hydraulic couplers & interchanges. Please contact your sales representative for quotes, literature or more information on these or any of our quality Suppliers. We’re in discussions with several more Suppliers and will update you as soon as things are formalized. We’ve completed the early phases of our IT hardware upgrades, which has allowed us to also upgrade our systems software packages. Although much of this work has already been implemented without a negative impact to our Customers, more is on the horizon. We’ve added some key staff and made our operations more effective, with more account coverage than we’ve had in the past two years. We also have a new initiative that you’ll be hearing more about in the coming months. If you are currently a Customer or Supplier of ours, we thank you for your support and pledge to continue fulfilling your needs to the best of our abilities. If you’re not currently doing business with us or have strayed to another pasture, we invite you back. Our folks are out seeing Customers, Reps and Suppliers so we’ll be calling on you soon. If you haven’t visited us, we would like to extend an open invitation. We’re located in Marietta and available every day. Check our web site at www.unitedpowerinc.com for the latest news and events as well as a few bonuses. It’s being renovated so check back often to see our progress. We try to understand our Customers’ needs – quality products, delivered promptly at fair prices and the expertise to provide you the correct solutions. We hope you’ll continue to let us provide this for you. We’ve always been noted for giving our partners a little “extra.” Now that we’re being re-invented, you’ll get even more. We’re looking forward to seeing you soon ! |
