Looking Forward with a Quick Glance over our Shoulder at the
Past
|
|
While we typically
don't spend a great deal of time reflecting on the past (not enough hours
in the day!) we were recently reminded that it was just a few short years
ago when our messages were focused on keeping our friends and customers
"in the loop" as much a possible relative to the current state of
the economy and its effect on TriMark and our ability to deliver the
best in access hardware solution to our customers.
The reminder came as we were discussing the soon to be fully functional
expansion that TriMark undertook last year. We have previously
communicated in our newsletter that TriMark has completed a major
facilities expansion and have several significant new machines and
equipment that will be operational early in 2014. This new capacity will
allow us to better serve current and future customers in our existing
markets as well as new markets that have come to us for our expertise.
Recent History
First, just a quick bit of history to serve as a reminder. Back in 2008
when we realized that we were headed for an economic crisis, TriMark
took some very proactive and strategic steps to insure that we would
survive and exit the crisis as a stronger company; better positioned to
take advantage of what we observed would be a different economic world.
When we made those decisions back in 2008-09, little did we realize the
full effect would be experienced just four years later. For lack of a
better term, TriMark has been experiencing "rapid" growth
over the last 18 months which has certainly kept us on our toes relative to
maintaining production schedules as well as making sure we do not
compromise our quality standards.
Strategic Partners
We believe that much of our success can be traced directly to the high
level of trust our customers place in us as a strategic partner. We are
working very hard to make sure that the "rebalancing" that is due
to the upswing in demand from our current and new market segments is as
seamless as possible for our customers.
We can assure you that everyone at TriMark is focused on improving
our performance. We ask our customers to assist us as much as possible with
projections on orders so that we can meet and satisfy your requirements.
2014 Will be an Exciting and Busy Year
So what can you look forward to from TriMark in 2014? Here are just
a few things you can expect:
- An updated website that will be more comprehensive
and allow for more search options
- New facilities expansion to be fully operational
- Major new product announcements
- Participation in additional tradeshows which
reflects the global scope of our business.
We sincerely hope
that you and your families have a joyous Holiday Season and that 2014 is
prosperous for us all.
Thank you for you continued trust and support.
