Coming off a highly successful sales and purchasing convention, the Independent Welding Distributors Cooperative (IWDC; Indianapolis, IN) set an all-time monthly record in May with $27 million in members’ spend. “Prior to last month, we have never broken through $26 million and are excited to raise the bar again,” stated Frank Kasnick, the president and chief executive officer. “This is a testament to the strength and resilience of the independents in our welding and gas industry, and reflects the strong support from our vendor partners.”
“We are thrilled to announce that our staff, member owners and vendor partners accomplished our goal to raise $50,000 for Workshops for Warriors during our May 2019 sales and purchasing annual convention,” reported Keith Werkley, the director of sales and vendor management. Jessica Keck, the manager of vendor engagement commented, “We would like to thank our members, vendors and employees for their generous donations to this worthy cause. We take great pride in our affiliation and look forward to supporting future campaigns.”
