It's hard to believe that Thanksgiving has come and gone
and that Christmas will be here in a matter of days. There always seems
to be last-minute, year-end "crunches" that take place and this
year is no different than others in that regard. It's hard not be
thinking about all of the opportunities presented when the calendar flips
over to a new year but right now we are focused on the immediate needs of
our customers.

In the last issue of this newsletter we shared with you that
service and delivery schedules continue to be one area where we would like
to have a better record of performance. We are also working to correct some
"supply line" issues which as anyone who works in manufacturing
will tell you, creates all kinds of "ripple" effects. We continue
to ask our customers to assist us as much as possible with projections on
orders so that we can meet and satisfy your requirements.

pleasure of meeting new prospects as well as old customers who came to see
that new and innovative access system hardware TriMark has available

increase -
- Top 5 foreign countries: Germany, USA, Italy, S.

Li Fangyu, VP Marketing China from Volvo Construction Equipment spoke
highly of the show: "bauma China 2014 is taking place in the midst of
a recession in the construction machinery market. However, judging by the
exhibitors and VIP customers we met here, the trade show is very
encouraging. At such times, bauma China is giving us vitality, hope and
spirit."
