The award reflects Berk-Tek’s excellent support and innovative programs provided to Graybar in all facets, managed by Kris Lindley, Berk-Tek’s director of strategic accounts, handling the Graybar activities — from customer service, which includes the innovative vendor managed inventory program, to marketing efforts, related collateral and educational presentations.
