Here's what our members are saying about S.I.D.A.

"When I first heard about S.I.D.A., my immediate questions were, 'What's it going to cost me?' and 'What do I have to give up?'

I'm extremely pleased to say that my savings more than covered my costs in the first year membership, and I gave up absolutely nothing. I now have a network of contacts from other areas who understand the challenges I face daily in my business, because they're facing them too. We share information and solutions, so we're not all out there reinventing the wheel.  -Steve Field, Heritage Wholesalers

As a whole, we're greater than the sum of our parts.

It’s all about the communications and networking.  I am very impressed with the channel of communications that SIDA has with its members.  They keep us updated on many specials they work out with various vendors and it’s members openly network with each other.  My first year can only be called a success!  -Gary Lytle, SIBCO Building Products

The Power of Many, the Indepenence of One

As a founding member, I felt it hard to compete in my individual region, not knowing what was happening in similar markets.  The group was formed to help distributors compete more effectively in the markets that each of us serve.  Our goal was to strengthen our individual companies by networking with other independent distributors that face the same day to day operating and competitive issues: sharing ideas, marketing methods, success stories, increasing efficiencies, and improving our profits by participating in additional manufacturer rebate programs and block buying opportunities.

Since every dollar saved and every percent of added margin truly goes straight to the "bottom line", being a member of SIDA has afforded us a tremendous return on our time, efficiency, and financial investment. Our growth and financial strength has been greatly aided by SIDA's commitment to us. It has been a wonderful partnership. I highly recommend SIDA to any independent that is committed to growth, increased efficiency, and improved profit margins. SIDA represents a great return on your investment.  -Steve Hancock, Cross Country Distributing
