Marty Nolan, NCFA President
The 2013 North Coast Fastener Association’s (NCFA) Distributor Social was the biggest one yet with approximately 250 people in attendance!
It started off with an outstanding Panel Discussion followed by a night of networking and socializing. The topic of this year’s Panel Discussion was “Challenges of the Current Fastener Business Climate” and the panel included Simmi Sakhuja (Stelfast, Inc.), Bob Fawcett (Nucor), Dan Zehnder (Trinity Logistics), Don Shan (Solution Industries) and Steve Andrasik (Brighton Best). The moderator for the discussion was Eric Dudas of Fully Threaded Radio. A special “thank you” to our panel speakers and moderator for taking the time to participate in the panel discussion. This was the 5th year the NCFA has hosted the Distributor Social, with attendance growing each year. Plans are already underway for the 2014 NCFA Distributor Social, with tours and open houses being determined. This event has been noticed by other regional fastener associations and has become one of our best attended and most popular events. Many thanks to all the suppliers who support the event and the distributors who take the time to attend.
