LONG ISLAND CITY, N.Y., July 19, 2002 - The Equity Product
Excellence Award for 2001 was presented to Cooper Wiring
Devices recently. A measure of product quality, packaging
and consistent competitive pricing, the award was presented
at the annual meeting of Equity Electrical Associates,
whose 242 independent electrical distributor members across
the country voted for the top electrical manufacturers.
Cooper's score topped all others. Equity Electrical Associates'
members are leading distributors in their own geographic
markets, representing combined sales of more than $4 billion.
According to Dan Potter, Marketing Director of Equity
Electrical Associates, "the Equity Award, based on the
votes of the distributors at-large, underlines the accomplishments
of all Cooper Wiring Devices' employees before the entire
distributor-manufacturer community in the country."
Marketing Vice President James Knapik says, "We appreciate
this high honor of the Equity organization's award, especially
now that we have launched our integrated branding and
marketing program to support electrical distributors,
contractors and specifiers around the country for our
line of over 10,000 electrical products."
"It reinforces our plan to become the industry's prime
source of electrical plugs, receptacles, connectors, switches
and locking devices, among many other products that find
their way into industrial, residential, commercial and
institutional markets."
