They will only relocate to the east coast soon something big in the works I am sure of it the two companies already work close together and they helped design something that sells very very well.

perhaps I am more geographically challenged than I thought. A manufacturer located on the east coast? hmmmm......... are the Carolinas considered east coast?
Are you suggesting that Electrolux is working together with another company from the East Coast, and that big news is coming? Reeeeaaaallllyyy ??????? We have heard nothing about it. We've got nothing that we can say.
The rumor is B/S/H/, You may if heard that all Merchandising Representatives were let go the last week of October. Thes reps were responsible for all Trainings and Merchandising in the two big Boxe's(Sears/Lowe') A/M/S/ Will handle all big box Stores Sears/lowes. A/M/S has been calling on Lowe's for Electrolux and now will be dealing with the two acounts. I am sure that product Imformation and Knowledge will be shared. Electrolux has been making a FSR for Bosch in the 1000Price Point but it is not doing welll. Good Luck to any employee that is with B/S/H.
1) What or Who is A/M/S? A national rep firm we imagine. 2) Here is our July 14, 2009 report on the Electrolux production for BSH. CLICK 3) Are these the Electrolux built Bosch units you are referring to? CLICK
Vision 1's comment seemed to be referring to something larger than simply national account representation. Are you as well? A cheap range, and sharing a national account rep doesn't seem like so much. What are we missing? Spell it out if you can.
YES, THE 300 SERIES IS MAD BY ELECTROLUX, The funny thing, same unit as fridgedair but nicer Grates but It will cost you 300$ more for the Name Bosch Name tag. The grates must be made out of Black Gold.
AMS | American Merchandising SpecialistsYou are correct, they are a Third party of Merchandising Reps that have no loyalty to the brand, and basic duties are to Put price stickers on and to check to see if product is on floor. This is the Same company that had a year contract with Samsung But was broken after 6months. B/S/H made a huge move to cut cost. Instead of Having trained sales specialist that are loyal and Didcated to the brand. They went completely out of the way to train US and were pationate about the brand. After one meeting with rep he told me that Sears/Lowe's Did 70% Percent of there Business. They decided that Paying a third Party 1/3 of the Sallary of one of there own they will create More Sales. Go Figure! Working In a big box account It has been a huge disapointment what B/S/H has Dicided to do. These guys were named Vendor of the Year/and Best in class. Good Luck to Them>I would imagine that any Big Box would hire them and I doubt they will sell bosh. Many of my friends have decided the same.

It's no secret to anyone that the apppliance market is down and when you don't make the profit dollars you are expected what happens a new CEO comes in promise's the world say's this is the best team he has ever worked with then drops the bomb with all kinds of layoff's kind of like the Brazil unit and what happened to that one hmmmmmmm sold to Mabe I believe is the name. Well all of a sudden I hear this and lay offs at B/S/H start to make them more profitable, but the service plummets at these ''national accts'' and they start to sell something else then we have a firesale. This is what I believe will happen we shall see what play out.
