Delta received the Leeps Supply Partner of the Year Award for the third consecutive year at this year’s LPG/IMARK buying group conference held in San Diego in January, honoring its top partners for the 2019 calendar year.

“We were shooting for the three-peat, and we got it!” said Delta’s Senior Trade Sales Manager Fredrick Chang, a title reserved for only the best of the best in any industry.

2019 award recipients include the following:

• Delta— Faucets/ Fixtures represented by Added Sales
• Viega — Fittings represented by Dave Erickson (Viega)
• Feiss collection by Visual Comfort & Co. — Showroom Lighting represented by Lisa Needler

This year's awards focused on the categories of Faucets/Fixtures, Fittings and Lighting — three strategic areas for the company’s growth in 2019 in its branch and showroom locations.

“Each of these suppliers and their representatives showed tremendous support of our efforts this year. We just want to make sure they know how much we appreciate their direct contribution to a successful year,” said Mike Housler, the company’s purchasing manager. “Our priority is serving our customers and our team, and they helped us to do that in 2019."

As before, this year's awards focused on those suppliers and manufacturers that provided the highest levels of service and support. The recipients were individually rated by each of the company's leaders at the branches, showrooms, sales, purchasing, marketing and distribution centers on sales growth, innovation, rep support, programming and overall commitment to providing quality products and great service.

Leeps Supply operates eight counter locations, three showrooms and two distribution centers throughout northwest Indiana, Illinois and Michigan.
