Nexstep Commercial Products (Exclusive Licensee of O-Cedar) is proud to announce Modern Sales Company of Olmsted, Ohio as its 2015 Sales Rep Agency of the Year. This is the second consecutive year for Modern Sales.

Modern Sales has represented Nexstep Commercial Products since April 2013. The agency was founded by Larry Flury in 1975 after spending many years as the national sales manager of a large polyethylene can liner manufacturer. His philosophy was to help distributors build their businesses by offering quality manufactured products at competitive prices. Over the years, Modern Sales has developed long lasting relationships with their distributor network in the Ohio, West Virginia, Western Pennsylvania, Indiana, Kentucky and Michigan markets.

Today, Modern Sales is run by Larry’s children Charlie Flury and Nancy Pailes, who each joined the agency immediately after graduating from Bowling Green State University. Modern Sales specializes in janitorial and disposable foodservice items, and is still very much a family business. Nancy and her husband Rick Pailes have worked together for 15 years, and Charlie’s son Mike Flury joined the agency 3 years ago. In addition to these four reps, Modern Sales also employs Bob Foeller and Bill Umbarger, two very experienced reps in the JanSan industry. Of course, they will tell you the real success of the company lies in Sandi Olbrysh and Kathy Stanich who cover all the day-to-day operations in the office.

Nexstep Commercial Products would like to express our appreciation to Modern Sales Company and congratulate them on their outstanding accomplishments in 2015.
