Representatives from two major wholesaler groups met in Chicago to explore the possibility of combing their associations.
The Northamerican Heating, Refrigeration and Airconditioning Wholesalers (www.nhraw.org) and the Air-conditioning and Refrigeration Wholesalers International (www.arwi.org) discussed forming a new association that combines the two groups. Association officers, associate member representatives and chief staff officers held an "exploratory meeting" that reviewed results of a recent member survey conducted to gather opinions about the possible merger.
