In an increasingly competitive global market, staying informed, connected, and forward-thinking is more than a luxury—it’s a necessity. At Ryson International, participation in trade organizations is not just about industry presence—it’s a strategic commitment to excellence and innovation. But what does this mean for you, the customer? The answer: quite a lot.
Last week, we had a productive visit with MHI’s Membership Experience Manager – Angela Alston-Jenkins. Her job is to visit with member companies and give detailed information about benefits and opportunities MHI offers that companies aren’t necessarily taking advantage of. We were very impressed with the initiative, and the meeting itself. It also is a win-win because they also learn more about what our company can offer to the industry at-large.
MHI is America’s largest material handling, logistics and supply chain association. They cater to a diverse array of disciplines, and our membership includes professionals ranging from equipment manufacturers, consultants and publishers to third-party logistics providers and systems integrators. MHI has sponsored industry trade events in support of the products and services of its membership for over seventy years.
