A Peach of a New Installation

What a life INFONETICS Account Specialist Jim Conlin is living! Last November, while at a trade show in Cancun, Mexico, Jim had the good fortune of meeting Merrill Ward of Ward Supply Company. Faced with the prospect of coming back to the frigid Ohio temperatures for the winter or spending a couple weeks in central Georgia instead, Jim immediately started selling Merrill on the merits of the INFONETICS system! Thankfully Merrill was in need of a good system and INFONETICS met those needs. So last month Jim got to spend a couple weeks in Georgia and Merrill got a system to help him run his business.

Ward Sales Company has been serving Cordele, Georgia and the surrounding communities for the last five decades in one aspect or another. Almost 50 years ago Ward Machinery was founded as a sale and repair shop for farm implements and the agriculture industry. In 1983, Wards Sales Company opened right across the street and has been serving the welding supply and industrial gas industry ever since. Five years ago a second branch of Ward Sales was started about 40 miles away in Americus, Georgia and has expanded the total coverage area of Ward’s to 19 counties over a 100 miles radius. A full line welding supply distributor, Ward’s also sells steel and steel supplies, industrial gases, and a variety of agricultural supplies.
