“IPC Global has distinguished itself in the association for many years, but in 2007, their stellar performance clearly put them at the top,” said Roberts. “IPC Global has continually demonstrated the product quality and service integrity that we (AIOD) are always looking for in our supply chain. In addition to maintaining a very proactive approach to our business, by introducing new products and bringing them to the market quickly, IPC has also provided our 380-member professional sales force with the marketing tools and exceptional technical and training support they need to get the job done. At AIOD, we invest in people, not companies, and the team at IPC Global Solutions best exemplifies how well that investment pays off,” Roberts explained.

“We are very excited about this prestigious award,” said Rodda. “When you are recognized by a very successful organization such as AIOD, it says a lot about you and the way you do business. In the AIOD, we work side by side with some exceptional, industry-leading manufacturers, so it takes a great effort and commitment to be the best. We are very proud of our people and their dedication in serving the Association of Independent Oil Distributors.”
