SPICERS

Released 25/11/2008

Reassures its dealers

With rumours rumbling in the trade about wholesale relationships with dealers and in particular the comments about dealers moving their business between wholesalers, Spicers says it is able to reassure the industry of their 100% commitment to being exclusively wholesale and supporting the dealer community.

This support and dedication to building dealers' businesses has resulted in October 2008 being the biggest ever month in terms of sales for Spicers in the UK.

Spicers has invested in a number of categories over the past few years enabling its dealers to offer a comprehensive range of EOS, facilities management products and furniture, as well as investments in the infrastructure. This has been reflected in business wins including the Advantia/United dealer group.

Jane Rowe commented: "The ‘one-stop-shop' that Spicers offer to their dealers coupled with competitive pricing and quality of service makes Spicers a partner of choice in today's challenging economic environment. The benefits of consolidating purchasing of core stationery, EOS and other product categories that are key to the Spicers portfolio helps dealers to streamline their business removing unnecessary cost and administration."

Spicers is also developing its e-commerce platform with the preview at SOS of OscarNET 2.0, which will be rolled out during the first quarter of 2009. For more information on SOS visit www.sos08.net.
