Sudbury store collapes !!

Sudbury store collapses !!

Talking with Moe from Sudbury --his one store collapsed !! Well - his steel shelving collapsed. What happened was the Rotor section collapsed and the resulting domino effect brought down the rest of the steel shelving and some walls that it was secured to!

THIS is important. We continue to add sku's one or two at a time --and we continue to add weight to this ever growing line. I am asking Managers to review the BDR line and to make a plan on to how to EXPAND BDR to other areas so we do NOT have an excess amount of weight on any one area.

To be discussed at next manager meeting.

As a side note --I am somewhat disappointed with CARQUEST --I feel that almost all jobbers will have a fair exposure to this problem and they should be sure to remind other jobbers of the peril to staff safety and to the extra cost of replacing all the shelving that is destroyed when it collapses. I will forward a note to Matt Davis and Steve Gushie.
