for Western Territory Distribution of Greenhouse Heating
Systems
SAN MARCOS, Calif., November 6,
2006 – Delta T Solutions
has selected Solaris, the greenhouse division of McConkey & Co.,
based in Sumner, Wash., as its Western Territory distributor.
The partnership allows Delta T to expand its ability to
provide growers in the Western region of the United States
with complete engineered greenhouse heating systems.
Delta T specializes in hot water
heating systems for commercial greenhouses. Delta T’s
affiliation with McConkey enables Delta T to provide
a total package to growers, thus eliminating the need
to research the host of various products needed for specialized
applications.
“The partnership with McConkey is a significant
development for Delta T,” said Russ Zabel, president
of Delta T Solutions. “It allows us to grow
our business and better market our products and services
to customers. The Western region of the United States has
been an area of focus as an important part of our growth
strategy, and the partnership with McConkey helps us further
realize that objective.”
“We selected McConkey as our Western distributor
primarily because the company has such strong coverage
of the Western territory,” said Armando Echavarria,
Inside Sales, Delta T Solutions. “They have
a long-standing reputation for good service, providing
information and educating growers. Plus, the sales
force has an impressive knowledge of the industry.”
McConkey also expressed excitement
about the relationship. “As
any grower knows, the proper design and material for the
greenhouse environment are critical for that system to
deliver years of life in an otherwise harsh environment,” said
Ed McConkey, president of McConkey & Co. “Through
this new relationship between McConkey and Delta T, we
can help growers design systems that give years of service – all
in a one-stop solution. Delta T’s service reputation,
from design to maintenance, is very impressive. Every
Delta T Solution is delivered with a detailed ‘Installation
Instructions Package’ to provide greenhouse growers
with everything necessary to install the system properly.”
