It is our associates’ commitment to provide personal attention to help them achieve their goals.

Investing in relationships is the key to our over 40 years of success. The relationships we actively facilitate between our members and supplier partners, and those we build with them, help us understand each other’s unique needs so together we can grow our businesses. Individual attention and personalized support is what we do different and better than anyone else.

We put our all into leveraging our unique economies of scale, robust financial systems and people-first approach to help independent distributor members outperform the competition, best-in-class suppliers protect their brands and diversify their channel strategy, and associates perform at their best.

We are living in a changing world and we are never satisfied with the status quo. Our innovative mindset enables us to take risks, while our size affords us the resources to make investments in programs to help our members compete today and tomorrow.
