TO:
On December 15, 2015 General Implement Distributors, a division of Arnold Machinery Company from Salt Lake City, Utah purchased the assets of Alliance Distributing, Inc from Hewitt (Waco) Texas. The new company will be operated as a Branch of General Implement Distributors (GID) dba Alliance Distributing, Waco Branch.
We know that you may currently have representation in the New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, and Southern Mississippi areas. We also have full intentions to honor the Agreements we have with you and the boundaries that we are permitted to sell your products within.
GID has been in the Agricultural distribution business since 1938 and you currently have a Distribution relationship with GID through one of their ‘5’ the existing Branches (Salt Lake City Utah, Boise Idaho, Portland Oregon, Billings Montana, and Jamestown North Dakota).
We would also request that you consider GID when other opportunities become available. We are committed to the Farm Equipment Wholesale business as we have shown by this acquisition. Our success in our new “WACO” branch will hinge upon relationships with Manufacturers like we currently have with you.
It is also our desire to continue to offer the same FIRST CLASS representation in the future as we integrate Alliance Distributing into their new role as the WACO branch of GID. We believe that through the principles that GID was founded on we will continue to be an effective partner with you in the future. We believe that by offering the BEST products, manufactured by the BEST manufacturers, distributed by the BEST Distributor, we can be successful in this the BEST industry…the Farm industry.
We are looking forward to long and mutually profitable relation with you in the immediate and long term future.
Sincerely,
Darrell J Buttars, President
General Implement Distributors, Inc.
