Goes forward as national accounts rep for 250-plus A-D distributors
SupplyFORCE.com was founded during the dot-com boom with an aggressive, ambitious agenda and seed money from venture capitalists and a small group of electrical, industrial supply, and PVF distributors. A financial restructuring of the company in early October saw the VCs leave and the company mutate. Now it's no longer in the dot-com or Internet businesses and has become a distributor-owned entity.
The focus now: National accounts sales for the 250-plus member distributors. Affiliated Distributors and its chairman/CEO, Bill Weisberg, served as the original drivers behind supplyFORCE.com. Unlike the now-defunct SourceAlliance.com and the still-extant Vantage Group, supplyFORCE.com was not limited to electrical distributors.
