| Try Hard Industrial Supply
Company Ltd. began operations in the spring of 1979. The name chosen by
company owner and president Frank Ferko at its founding represents the
underlying philosophy that brought the firm to prominence within a very
competitive marketplace.
Frank wanted to differentiate his distributorship in the industrial
mill supply industry by having customers know that everyone on staff
truly does "Try Hard" to meet their needs. This take-the-initiative
approach demonstrated a strong commitment to developing new competencies
within the organization to establish ultimate customer service.
His fundamental principles are as vital and relevant today as in the
beginning - assemble a strong, knowledgeable sales team, build a company
team committed to working together and maintain an inventory unmatched
in the industry.
The success story from this dynamic young firm took root from humble
beginnings - with two people, an 1800 square foot warehouse and the
desire to succeed. By combining sound business practices and
trying hard, Try Hard Industrial Supply has grown significantly over the
past three decades. Operations are now housed in a 20,000 square foot
modern facility, with an extensive inventory of quality products
essential to the manufacturing industry.
Today, Frank Ferko is still actively involved in plotting strategy
for growing the business, but has transferred much of the day-to-day
management responsibility to his two sons. Dario and John Ferko
share their father's vision. Customer, suppliers and staff alike
have endorsed the able and aggressive leadership style of these next
generation business professionals. |
