Italian appliance producer SMEG recently appointed Tri State Distributors to represent the brand in the U.S. Pacific Northwest and Rocky Mountain Regions, marking yet another significant distribution enhancement the company has made during the past 10 months.
“We are committed to our mission of being an important culinary brand partner to our independent dealers and the shared clients we serve,” said Paul McCormack, SMEG’s North American sales director. “Our union with Tri State, a partner that shares this exact vision, makes our integration a natural fit.”
Like SMEG, Tri State Distributors is a family-owned-and-operated enterprise.
“When my grandfather Don Dickson Sr., founded Tri State Distributors in 1967, his goal was to establish a diversified distribution company that had strong personal relationships with its customers, suppliers and employees,” stated Mitch Dickson, vice president of sales, and a third-generation co-owner and operator of Tri State Distributors. “We strongly believe those goals have been achieved, but we do not rest on our laurels, and work hard every day to earn the respect of our partners.”
Tri State Distributors is now the distributor of record for SMEG in the states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming and Alaska.
“With the addition of SMEG, we now have a premier and complete kitchen culinary suite to provide our dealers,” said Jeff Sloan, luxury appliance and BBQ sales manager at Tri State. “We operate five warehouses that are strategically-placed throughout the market to respond quickly to our new and growing network of SMEG retailers.”
Prospects and dealers can contact Jeff Sloan directly at Tri State Distributors with any questions about SMEG.
