welcome aboard dawn, ive dealt with bunzl for years (ginsburg) before that
i had good luck with bunzl,,,, use to tell the bunzl rep- more items they should be carrying -
dawn, do you sell vac seal bags/pouches?? 3 ml 8x10 10x12 12x16 ??
one of the best things bunzl did was come out with a picture based supply item catalog,,,,when you can see the item,,,especially new items,,you will buy more.(i kept telling the rep to do this-even 20 yrs ago)
one company i worked for (a warehouse) would be hitting bunzl for monies all the time-between trade shows, charity events/fundraisers, and everything else, to recoup some of that monies, added costs would be attached to supplies- making them look high (along with the warehouse margins and added rebates/incentives
then other supply vendors would come in the store with attractive costs-because this company isnt shoveling other monies to the supplier

Thanks for the welcome MeatGrady! I enjoyed reading your bio. Nothing like on the job real-life experience! That's pretty much how I got my start in advertising/marketing. Now here I am 25 years later and I'm wondering where all those years went. Time flys when you're having fun!

Just to give you all a little more information about me, I come from a family of game hunters. I grew up shooting guns and deer hunting. We process our own deer meat and do a decent job of it, but I'm sure I could learn a lot from all you professionals! I've always thought it would be fun to take a class on meat cutting.
