Spartan Chemical Company, Inc., a recognized leader in the formulation and manufacture of sustainable cleaning and sanitation solutions for the industrial and institutional market, was recognized by Strategic Market Alliance (SMA) and presented the Navigator award for Supplier Achievement in Field Sales Excellence as judged by survey of SMA Member Distributors.
SMA’s Navigator recognition program acknowledges top performances in a number of important quantitative performance categories for the preceding year by both SMA Member Distributors, and by the group’s qualified suppliers. Navigator recognition is also presented to suppliers based on feedback and results from SMA’s annual survey of member distributors.
“Navigator recognition is something very special to the associates of SMA,” said Dick McGann, President, Strategic Market Alliance. “This recognition conveys our deeply-felt appreciation and respect for the efforts made by all of our supplier partners and member companies in service together to our mutual customers.”
"Spartan exclusively sells through independent distribution," said John Swigart, President, Spartan Chemical. "This award acknowledges the dedication and partnership we have to this channel and with SMA distributors to secure their value and competitive position in the market."
The Navigator recognition award was presented by Dick McGann, President, Strategic Market Alliance and Jack Dietrich, Chief Operating Officer, Strategic Market Alliance during the Alliance Member-Supplier Conference 2018 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Spartan was represented by John Swigart, President, Greg Ford, Vice President, Sales, and Bryan Mangum, General Sales Manager.
