John Dow Wins a Key Supplier Award from Ford Rotunda

I missed this last month, but thought you'd like to know! At the 2009 NADA Show, held in New Orleans, John Dow Industries received the Ford Rotunda Key Supplier Award for the sixth straight year.

The Key Supplier Award is given for meeting standards that ensure exemplary service and support to the Rotunda Tool & Equipment Program in the areas of OE Support, Sales Support, Business Alignment, Dealer Service Satisfaction, Supply Chain Management, Product Management, and Marketing Management. This is no minor award, and to achieve it six years in a row is phenomenal.

JohnDow Industries is based in Barberton, Ohio and manufactures a variety of automotive shop equipment and supplies including portable fuel and handling, used oil and fluid handling, vehicle exhaust extraction, and automotive service equipment and supplies. Their brands include Fuel Chief, Crew Chief, EuroVent, JohnDow and Shop RX.
