Just a reminder!
Its been another year, we started in 2012 our semi annual closing, we will be closed for the week of July 4th, so that our employees may enjoy the holiday with their friends, and family, and for our mid-year facility maintenance.
With the ever increasing costs of materials, and fuel, Ingredients To Die For has been working hard to improve efficiency, and reduce our operating costs, to help us offset these increasing costs, without increasing our catalog prices. We have implemented many changes to reach these goals. One of the many changes, that we've made, is in the way that we have facility maintenance performed. In the past we have paid a higher contract rate in order to have, necessary, maintenance performed after hours so that it would not disrupt the flow of business. After analyzing these costs we realized that that was costing us an extra 30% in after hours maintenance. We now have all, necessary, maintenance performed on a regular schedule, twice per year, which has resulted in a significant savings, helping us to absorb some of the increased costs and avoid price increases.
Ingredients To Die For will continue to look for creative ways to reduce our overhead, and improve our efficiency, to maintain the stable prices that our customers have come to count on.
We thank you for your tolerance and hope that this move does not create any inconvenience for you, or your company.
Happy 4th of July.
