United States. Johnstone Supply recognized Johnson Controls with two awards during its Spring Sales Planning meeting and fair in Nashville, Tennessee.
Johnson Controls' HVAC line leadership and the Coleman brand were recognized by receiving two of the four supplier awards presented at the event – the Johnstone Supply Award for Excellence in Sales and Marketing and the Johnstone Supply Corporate Liaison Award.
The Corporate Liaison Award highlights the individual contribution of Tim Brusseau, account manager of Johnson Controls' strategic distribution unit product group, for helping Johnstone Supply achieve its 2013 business objectives. Both awards recognize Johnson Controls' commitment to providing its customers with a broad product offering, robust training programs, and a focus on sales support. According to Johnstone Supply, this commitment has contributed to a 30% increase in sales for the distributor.
"It's always nice when a customer makes a connection between our efforts and their success," said Rod Rushing, vice president and general manager of the unit products group. "To be honored for those efforts with two special awards from a customer as important to our own success as Johnstone Supply is especially gratifying. This recognizes our mission to be a long-term partner that consistently delivers quality products and support services to our customers."
