This Friday is our Month End. We have been on a pretty good roll since February. The winter's snow gave way to a busy Spring. We are concerned that rising gas prices will take some of the momentum out of the economy.
Hopefully by now we are all checking our Portal views and staying on top of open orders. We do have a considerable amount of product on shippers (around $150,000). If you are not reviewing your Portal view, please make it part of your daily routine. It is easy to check the status of the orders in your view, and we can proactively expedite old orders and keep our cistomers happy. No one likes to get a call from a customer looking for an old order, reviewing Portal view will keep you on top of your orders.
Congratulations goes out to our Hope crew. On Wednesday April 13th, Raytheon held an awards banquet for their top Suppliers. Hope was awarded four stars (out of a possible five) for excellence in performance (on time delivery and quality were key evaluators). Hope was presented a nice award and a big congratulatory banner. Great job!
As mentioed earlier, our sales are around the same as last year, if we can finish the month strong, we can wind up slightly ahead of last year at this time.
Thanks for your efforts!
