ACR GROUP INC.- LAKE PLACID

Our growth has been accomplished through an articulated strategy of timely and opportunity-driven acquisitions and expansions. The wisdom of this strategy is evident in the success we have experienced.

We carry equipment, insulation, duct pipe and fittings, copper and plastic tubing, replacement parts, supplies, tools, instruments - literally everything that the service and construction contractors need to repair or install air conditioning, heating and refrigeration systems.

Our employees are the best and brightest in the industry. We have generations of families working for us. We also are proud that most of our new employees are referred to us by our current employees. We look for independent-thinking, self-motivated men and women who have confidence in their capabilities and are looking for a career and a company that offers unlimited opportunity. Most of our management team, including top management, has experience at every level of the business. Working in the warehouse, driving delivery trucks and assisting in sales efforts, they represent hundreds of years of experience in our industry. When our employees need guidance in solving daily business challenges, their managers understand the issues and can offer appropriate solutions. We all speak the same language.

We are among the industry leaders in information technology. All field operations tie into a central computer system through a high speed Intranet managed in Houston. This system allows for a complete integration of the company's accounting system for up-to-the-minute sales information and asset management. We presently are working with our major suppliers in arranging full communication of inventory information that will allow for improved inventory balancing and reduced inventory needs at each branch location.
