Anderson Erickson Dairy Finds Business Relationships Not Just Business as Usual
“When you ask me what I would tell others about General Films, I’d say they have good quality products, they listen to the customer, they help us solve problems, they react quickly, and their prices are fair. I like to say that this is a business relationship that has also become a great business friendship.”
So says Craig Colonno, Purchasing Director & Ice Cream Mix Manager for Anderson Erickson Dairy in Des Moines, Iowa. Mr. Colonno recalls his first encounter with General Films over 15 years ago: “We were dealing with another supplier that couldn’t make delivery on some of the plastic fluid bags we use. Even though we weren’t one of their regular customers, General Films got us out of a bind for several months by supplying bags that worked with our filling equipment. Frankly, I don’t know what we would have done without them stepping in.”
“To this day they ask me my opinion about new products or how to improve existing ones and actually listen to what I have to say. They appreciate and use input from those of us who have experience working with these fillers and bags.“
– Craig Colonno, Purchasing Director Anderson Erickson Dairy
“We returned to our regular supplier out of a sense of loyalty, but a few years later we went back to General Films for our bags. Soon after, we worked closely with them to develop an automated web filler that would meet our specific needs. You might say we participated in the design of that filler and General Films was great to work with. They took me to see various fillers at other facilities and the prototypes they developed. Then they listened to what I had to say and acted on it.”
