The Vernon Company, Newton, Iowa, recently recognized Polyconcept North America (PCNA) with the 2019 Supplier of the Year Award during the company’s annual national sales meeting.
The Supplier of the Year Award is given annually to the industry supplier that provides the best overall service to The Vernon Company and its customers. The award is based on important quality considerations, including presale quotations, sample policies and procedures, prompt service on inquiries, on-time order shipments, customer service responsiveness, and marketing support programs. Suppliers are rated for product selection, quality, reliability, customer service, resolution, marketing support and overall partnership. This year, PCNA received “Exceptional” votes in all categories.
“This award is based on so much more than sales growth, but it is a contributing factor,” said Vicki Palm, director of marketing for The Vernon Company. “Last year, Vernon sales with PCNA increased by nearly 25 percent. Our partnership with PCNA has really grown over the past few years. From the top down, they took an interest in Vernon, and made changes to become a true partner. They have increased communication with us at every level, [participated] in our marketing programs and events, and have worked hard to build personal relationships with our account executives.
