Laticrete Recognized !

Ron Nash (V.P Sales & Marketing N.America), Rob Smith (Director, Sales N.America)
 and Ed Metcalf  (President N.America)

This week at Coverings, LATICRETE was named Supplier of The Year for 2014 by the membership of the Ceramic Tile Distributors Association - the premier group of independent tile and stone distributors in North America.

This award is the result of blind balloting by CTDA members who named their top suppliers and ranked them in terms of innovation, quality, service and other  measures.

Just as LATICRETE has twice been ranked #1 by end-users in the bi-annual Clear Seas study, we have now been recognized and honored by key distributors. This is truly a rare distinction for us to have been so honored, and is a testament to the results of our teamwork and commitment to excellence.

Following are comments offered by Ed Metcalf in accepting this award:

"It is indeed a great honor to accept this award on behalf of all of my friends and colleagues at LATICRETE International.

We are 1500 individuals worldwide united in a common mission - to provide world class products and services to our clients and industry partners around the globe.

We consider it a humbling validation of our founding principles that the membership of the CTDA have selected LATICRETE as Supplier of the Year.

We highly value the true partnership and trust that we share with our clients, and strive daily to justify their longstanding support.

This award was earned by every LATICRETE team member who takes pride in their work - at every location - from our receptionists to our shipping clerks and to every person in every role in between.

These are the ones who have earned this recognition, and in their names I  gratefully accept it."

Congratulations to all and thank you for the commitment you demonstrate which accrues to our team's success.
