Centric Parts Receives 2017 Mackenzie Warehouse Service Award

Centric Parts has won the 2017 Mackenzie Warehouse Service Award for “meeting or exceeding all standards.” The Service Award was presented at the 5^th Annual MAC555 Dinner and tabletop show on Thursday night at the Verdi Club in San Francisco. When the awards were presented by Michelle Mackenzie-Menendez and George Salfiti, Centric received the loudest cheer. This is the third time Centric has been honored by Mackenzie.

“The participants in the Mackenzie MAC555 program were especially vocal in thanking Centric for providing quality products,” said Centric Parts VP of Sales Mike Musso, “…and this year they went out of their way to praise the Centric reps as well. Jim Grimes, Ron Bessette and David Perry were singled out for all of their hard work in the field – and for always going above and beyond.”

Approximately 30 vendors were on hand, along with 40 of Mackenzie’s top customers and select MAC555 prospects. Centric Parts was well represented by Mike Musso and sales reps Ron Bessette, Jim Grimes and David Perry who were able to interact with the MAC555 installers as well as selected MAC555 prospects. We received a lot of praise and positive feedback from the group.

Not only did the guys man the booth, but they also pitched in with kitchen duty for the night’s gala awards dinner, helping prepare pork tenderloin for the 160 guests.  Joining Mike, Ron and George in the kitchen was David Wofford (second from left) from Pronto who leads their Smart Choice program.
