NetPlus Alliance, North America's largest buying group for industrial and contractor supplies distributors, announced the addition of Bosch Power Tools as its newest supplier beginning June 1.
Bosch provides innovative, technologically advanced products and solutions for the construction industry that meet the highest standards in speed, precision and durability.
The addition of Bosch strengthens NetPlus Alliance’s already lengthy list of over 120 suppliers, which cover a broad spectrum of industrial MRO and contractor product lines, including abrasives, cutting tools, power tools, hand tools, material handling products, fasteners, janitorial supplies, paints and lubricants, valves and fittings, safety products and much more.
NetPlus Alliance President Dan Judge said his company is excited to partner with a world class organization like Robert Bosch Tool Corporation. He noted that being the first buying group to work with Bosch is equally exciting.
“Our members are always looking for new ways to grow their business - and Bosch Power Tools allows our members to do just that. Bosch is a perfect fit for us to continue to achieve our goals of aggressive growth in 2012 and beyond,” Judge said.
As a leading global supplier of consumer goods and building technology, Bosch understands the need for construction professionals to be able to rely on their industry partners for technical expertise and innovative thinking.
Jamie Sylvia, director of Industrial Field Sales at Bosch, is thrilled to team up with NetPlus, adding that the partnership will be beneficial for both parties.
“Bosch is very excited to partner with NetPlus Alliance to gain new customers and market share together in 2012 and beyond. The combination of the current NetPlus customer base and the Bosch product offering is a natural fit for growth in the marketplace,” Sylvia said.
