Company News
From
the Desk of Mark K. Nelson, President
Let
me begin with a word of encouragement to all of you who have
been affected by the wrath of Hurricane Katrina. Our heartfelt
prayers go out to each of you in this time of chaos, confusion
and unknowns. I do not pretend to understand the personal
stress that you are going through. What I do know is there is
a willingness to put back what was so quickly removed by
Katrina. In time, we will see the positives that will rise
from the carnage and debris that this storm has left
behind.
Louisiana
residents and businesses are resilient, and Nelson Equipment
Co., Inc. is prepared to assist businesses in getting back on
their feet, up and running at full production, thus allowing
their employees to go back to work. Our staff of field sales
engineers is prepared to come into the area to assess damage
and needs. We have been given assurances from our valued
suppliers that they will do whatever they can to assist us
with the needs of our customers.
We
understand that the resources at your respective companies
will be thin for some time to come. We offer our service
support at no charge in order to help speed the process and
get your organization up and running as quickly as possible.
Our service technicians are available to assess damage to
existing equipment and provide written repair estimates or, if
necessary, professional assessment of damage beyond repair for
claim requirements.
All
of our suppliers have communicated with us and offered their
assistance in any way possible. They are asking us to
communicate the needs to them over the next weeks and months,
and they stand committed to help your business get back to
full operation. Already, Jimmy Feazel, president of Feazel
Electrical Contractors, has traveled to south Louisiana,
taking on a multi-faceted role. While assessing the damage and
needs, Jimmy, with the assistance of his church, drove down in
a bus in order to transport people out of south Louisiana to
shelters in northwest Louisiana.
While
our branch office in New Orleans is inoperable, our staff is
being relocated and will be available to assist in the
rebuilding process when the time comes.
Nelson
Equipment Co., Inc. fully understands that the task ahead of
us all is large and, at times, insurmountable. A first step is
always required to reach an objective. We stand ready to make
that first step with you.
Our
toll free number, 800-523-6199, will be monitored after normal
business hours. Leave a detailed message and you will be
contacted quickly by a representative of our company to
ascertain your needs.
God
bless you,
Mark K.
