CONCORD, N.C. (May 22, 2006)
--- Executives with Cardinal Logistics Management,
Inc. (Cardinal), one of the nation’s fastest growing
third-party logistics and transportation service firms,
has announced the company was recently awarded a five (5)
year contract by Brunswick, Ohio-based Turf Care Supply
Corp. to provide dedicated contract carriage services to
hundreds of Lesco retail locations. Lesco is a key client
of Turf Care Supply and a company which sells product to
professional landscape contractors and golf courses.
Turf Care Supply produces fertilizer, seed
and a combination of products for the professional turf care
industry. Recognized as the highest quality products in the
industry, TCS’s manufacturing facilities are capable
of producing products at any level of specialization and scale.
Turf Care Supply locations include Sebring, FL, Lawrenceville,
GA, Columbus, OH, Martins Ferry, OH, Westfield, MA, Parkesburg
, PA, Dallas, TX, Ontario, CA and Alsip, IL.
Frank Vetter, Turf Care Supply’s COO,
commented that he is looking very forward to a long-standing
relationship with Cardinal. “We really value good vendors
and we look forward to Cardinal being a long-term partner
with Turf Care Supply.”
Frank continued, “We were impressed with
the attention to detail during the implementation phase of
this project. We made the transition from a large national
provider during the middle of our busy season and the transition
was seamless to our customers. Another advantage Cardinal
brings to the table is personal one-on-one contact with Cardinal
executives. A competitive price, flexibility and senior management
that is very cooperative and responsive to our needs are hard
to find today. But it looks like Cardinal can provide all
of this and more. As we grow we expect Cardinal to be there
with us for a long time.”
Cardinal executives share in the excitement
of the new partnership as well. “Turf Care Supply Corporation
is a top-notch operation and a leader in the fertilizer and
seed industry, and we are most excited about providing this
new client the best dedicated delivery service available,” commented
Jerry Bowman, President and COO of Cardinal. “We are
particularly pleased that we are able to meet the fleet needs
of TCS, providing them with one of the largest specialized
delivery fleets in the industry,” he added.
