Mar 07, 2018

MicroCare Corp. the industry’s leading manufacturer of critical cleaning, coating and lubrication products, has recognized its highest achieving partners at IPC APEX EXPO, in San Diego, CA with the presentation of the ‘MicroCare Distributor of the Year’ and ‘Representative of the Year’ Awards.

Winner of the Distributor of the Year Award was once again presented to HISCO Inc. of Houston, Texas, a specialty distribution company who serves a number of industries including electronics, medical and defense.

“When deciding on who should receive the accolade of Distributor of the Year one name kept coming up time and time again, and that name was HISCO. One of the company’s key strengths is its dedicated staff whose teamwork has been a major factor in HISCO walking away with the top award for the second year running,” said Dan Sinclair, National Sales Manager.

HISCO showed superior rate of growth and professionalism in their operations which included all divisions from marketing to purchasing. It was also noted that the HISCO management and sales teams provide excellent support to MicroCare.

Tom Tattersall, Executive Vice President and COO added: “The company covered all the criteria that we look for in an outstanding distributor. By increasing the number of MicroCare products to their website, they have achieved an impressive increase in revenue that has exceeded expectations. The dedicated team, together with their keen understanding of our products and customers’ needs has contributed to their success.”

Also honored during the APEX EXPO was Stan Adsit of Adsit & Associates who received the MicroCare Representative of the Year Award. Recognizing regional independent sales reps across the USA, Canada and Mexico, Mr Adsit stood out for his impressive sales, product support and technical performance across all product lines and geographies.

“Stan Adsit is totally committed to sales and service and this, combined with his understanding of the industry and its customers, his professionalism and technical expertise, contributed to winning this well-deserved award.

We’ve built strong relationships with our distributors and representatives and we were honored to present the awards to both HISCO and Stan Adsit for their dedication and commitment to grow the MicroCare business,” concluded Dan Sinclair.
