Woodlands, TX – On January 26th, Hunton Distribution, along with its regional and national Trane and Mitsubishi partners, provided HVAC dealers with an educational, in-person experience at The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Convention Center to prepare their businesses for success in 2024.
This meeting offered dealers industry support, resources, marketing and product knowledge, as well as a review of trends and best practices. There were also over twenty-eight vendor partners in attendance. Charlie Hunton, president of Hunton Distribution, welcomed and thanked guests for their continued loyalty throughout 2023 defining “Finding Your Initiative” and how business owners must create an environment where people feel important, valued, and appreciated. Like the message from our Keynote Speaker, Michael Abrashoff, former Naval Commander of USS Benfold,” Charlie said, “Much like the Navy, you have to listen to and empower your team. Block out the bureaucracy and be open to new ideas.” The “Top Gun Award” winners also joined the bestselling author on the stage for champagne, pictures, and book signings of “It’s Your Ship: Management Techniques for the Best Damn Ship in the Navy.”
Other Event Highlights: state of the industry, marketing and operations updates, Trane and Mitsubishi presentations from Brian Davenport, Trane’s Vice President of Independent Distribution, and Erik Gray, Mitsubishi’s Regional Sales Manager; vendor product show and meet and greet, “Top Gun” winners and incentive trips announced, and the grand finale—speaker Michael Abrashoff.
