Fleet Buying Group is Going National
After serving the Kansas City area since 1998, Fleet Buying Group (FBG) is now going to bring its show on the road. Taking advantage of its location and its remarkable relationships direct with more than 600 manufacturers, FBG says it will be able to service fleets, big or small, from coast to coast. FBG says having its 300,000-square-foot warehouse centrally located will help its customers save money on shipping costs and cut down on shipping times. FBG has appointed Joe Dutcher as its executive vice president of national accounts to supervise the maturation of its National Division. According to the company, Dutcher has been very instrumental in developing other national programs for companies who wish to succeed in attacking the National Market and providing customer driven programs that are second to none. “Keep your eye open for FBG’s Website, www.fleetbuyinggroup.com, set to be launched the beginning of the second quarter, 2003,” Dutcher said.
