Jackson Warewashing Facility Update

June 2nd, 2010

To our valued customers:
 
We are happy to inform you that Steelworkers Local 14300 serving Jackson Warewashing has returned to work effective today, June 2.
 
As a result, Jackson is fully operational and we are accepting orders for all equipment categories. Our entire workforce reported for work today, and we are rapidly restarting all our manufacturing lines. We anticipate that our manufacturing facility will be at 100% capacity by week’s end, and that we’ll return to normal lead times quickly.
 
If during this work disruption period you have withheld, delayed or cancelled any orders, we encourage you to contact our Jackson customer service team or your local Manitowoc aligned sales representative. We will be happy to assist you in placing or restoring any orders, and working with you to confirm lead and shipping schedules that meet your requirements.
 
In addition, Jackson has announced release of its new CREW conveyor-style dishwasher, which made its debut at the NRA Show. CREW offers Clean, Reliable, Eco-Friendly Warewashing, delivering impressive cleaning and cost-saving performance.   Using only .32 gallons of water per rack – the industry’s lowest water use for conveyors! – less energy and chemicals, CREW can pay for itself in as little as three years of use. For more on the Jackson CREW, visit our website at www.jacksonmsc.com/crew.
 
Should you have any questions about current or future orders, please don’t hesitate to contact our customer service department at 800-736-8144, or call me directly at 606-523-4263. We sincerely appreciate your continuing support.
 
Yours truly,
Randy Karas
