ASKO Change in Southeast
Submitted by advisor on Sat, 01/01/2005 - 2:32am.
Westye Mid-West dropped ASKO earlier this year. Rumor has it that ASKO has cancelled Westye Group Southeast. The various Westye distributors, named for Mr. Westye F. Bakke, the father of Sub-Zero, are owned by Sub-Zero. This would be a break in the ASKO strategy we first reported on in December 2001 (see "Quick ASKO Distributor Update")
It is believed that ASKO and subsidiary brand Eurotech will be moving the business to HADCO.
UPDATE: Jan 18: Unconfirmed reports that Westye Mid-South located in Dallas, only a few miles from ASKO HQ, has also been dropped.
