Robertson Equipment wins 2011 Eriez® Merwin sales award

Erie, Pa. – Charlie Ingram, Eriez® Vice President of Sales and Marketing, announces that Robertson Equipment Company  of Strongsville, Ohio  has earned the 2011 Merwin Award. Eriez presents this award each year to its most outstanding U.S. field sales office.

“The Robertson Equipment Company team exceeded their sales goals in every assigned market-Sanitary, Processing and Heavy Industry,” says Ingram. “Remarkably, they achieved this success while expanding their field sales staff at the same time.”

While Robertson Equipment Company takes top honors this year, 28 Eriez field sales offices exceeded their full-year sales goals to become Merwin Award finalists.  “Eriez’ experienced and dedicated team of field sales representatives played a significant role in helping Eriez achieve records in 2011 for sales and shipments,” comments Ingram.

“Eriez’ top recognition is not new to northern Ohio,” explains Ingram. “SECO, headed by Fred Schwab at the time, won the Merwin Award in 2002.  Fred joined forces with Robertson Equipment in 2007, strengthening Eriez’ business in the territory and assuring continued long term success and growth.”

According to Eriez, Robertson Equipment will be presented with their own framed 2011 Merwin Award.  Additionally, the company’s name will be inscribed on the Merwin Award plaque that is kept permanently on display at Eriez Headquarters.
