Philippines contractors supply.

As a Philippines contractors supply I remember leaving a jobsite hot and tired, after a very long day. We needed supplies to start a new job early the next morning. It took more than an hour driving across town during rush hour to reach my supplier before closing time, and I was a half hour late. Harry was just locking the gate at the end of his long day. But he cheerfully asked what I needed, Philippines contractors supply opened up, and helped me load my truck. It reminded me again why I did business there--and why I liked Harry.

You might think that contractors shop wherever they can get the best prices, but few list price as most important when choosing a supplier. Construction supply Philippines contractors supply businesses, big and small, achieve about 80 percent of their gross sale from repeat business by developing long-lasting relationships with their customers. They earn this relationship every day by delivering product when it's needed, providing technical help and information, fielding sales reps that know their customers' businesses and care about them, helping their customers secure work Philippines contractors supply, and providing training "deminars." And in an era that supports just-in-time material purchasing, they typically carry large inventories so that the product a customer needs is on hand.

In the April issue of CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION Philippines contractors supply, we invited readers to tell us about their favorite construction supply houses--why they were great and what they did special. Here's a sampling of what you told us:

"We like Supply in Meridian, Idaho. They provide old fashioned service. They specialize in concrete, rent equipment, and sell tools. If we can't figure it out, we call them."

"Co in Phoenix, is a mom-and-pop place. Until recently they didn't have computers at the order desk because the owner felt that 'when you take computer orders, you are looking at the screen, not the customer.' They locate materials we need, and provide fast service. If I ask a question they can't answer, they find the answer and call me back. They do home shows, invite us to help them staff it, and turn the leads over to their customers Philippines contractors supply."
