A MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO


As we navigate the post-COVID era, the supply chain landscape has evolved profoundly, bringing both challenges and opportunities to our industry. We’re no longer in crisis mode, but ongoing supply chain complexities continue, and price fluctuations and material scarcity remain factors that require our proactive management.

To that end, we’ve developed practices and initiatives aimed at strengthening our supply chain and enhancing customer service. Here’s how we continue to invest in this journey forward:

  • Expedite Team: We’ve added specialized purchasing resources dedicated to sourcing, buying, and expediting your products. Our team meets with suppliers multiple times daily, staying responsive to market changes.
  • Significant Inventory Investment: We have increased our investment in strategic inventory with key suppliers, strengthening our ability to meet demand and ensuring you get what you need, when you need it.
  • Enhanced Customer Service and Relationships: Earlier this year, we restructured our organization to provide a more personalized approach. Each customer now has their own dedicated technical sales and service team, ready to assist with quotes, orders, technical consultation and customer care.
  • Supply Chain Knowledge Center: To keep you informed on the latest supply chain developments, we update our knowledge portal below with real-time updates from our suppliers, making it easier to stay current.

On behalf of GracoRoberts, thank you for your continued trust as we navigate this evolving landscape together. We are fully dedicated to delivering the exceptional experience you deserve.

Sincerely,

Jason Caldwell

President and CEO
