“Universal is positioned strongly to help electrical distributors grow their business through advanced products for nearly every application with our outstanding sales, marketing and pricing support,” said Jeff Bristol, vice president of sales, East Coast territory, for Universal Lighting Technologies. “Universal has conducted business with many loyal AD members over the years, and they value the customer support and the access to impressive local LED and ballast inventory. We look forward to working closely with our current and growing list of AD members.”

According to AD, its members’ year-to-date sales were up three percent at the end of the third quarter in 2015.
