It isn’t every day that Brad and Susan Krumrey, owners of K&S Millwrights get to travel to Cabo San Lucas. In February, they had a chance to leave Minnesota’s winter weather for the sun and warmth, thanks to Global Industries, Inc! K & S Millwrights is a dealer of Global Industries’ NECO Dryer division.
This trip was awarded to them based on their dealership performance over the last two years. This bi-annual event provided an opportunity for them to learn about the NECO products, conduct business with company representatives and enjoy some much-needed relaxation time.
Although the time away was mainly for fun and sun, Brad spent time in their general education sessions with general managers of the product line divisions and participated in break-out time for individual questions and answers on products. The business session gives them great ideas on up and coming products, gives everyone a time to collaborate thoughts, and learn from each other. Brad also learned more about the K & S new product line, Sentinel Buildings.
Importance of Business Relationships
It is beneficial to build good relationships with suppliers to ensure quality communication and service. In the hustle of everyday business, the opportunity for these types of interactions don’t always happen, so Brad and Susan embraced the chance. It’s also a time to learn about what is happening in the grain and building industry from top leaders from all over the world.
“Their friendship is equally important as the business relationship we have. We really enjoyed shopping in town and having dinner with our NECO rep, Wayne and his wife. We went to a fun place called Maro’s Shrimp Company, recommended by a friend. It was a great afternoon out with friends, capping the evening off at a fun place with awesome food!” -Susan
They also appreciated the leisure time as well. There were organized activities such as whale watching, city tours, and snorkeling. One of the most entertaining events (because Brad played!) was Quad Volleyball during the annual Beach Olympics. Brad’s team took second place, missing first place by only a couple points!
Brad and Susan returned from Cabo San Lucas relaxed, and full of knowledge and opportunities for their NECO Dryer and new Sentinel Building customers.
