Server Holds Prices Through 2013!

Sale - 2011 Prices
The title of this post is rather notable news for any business. What’s remarkable is Server’s last price increase was on January 1, 2011! If you’re an avid shopper, you might consider this the sale of the century. When was the last time you bought something priced three years back?

While that soaks in, I’d like to share how Server was able to hold prices for three straight years. You can rest assured a reduction in quality or service was not how inflation was battled. Each and every employee worked (and continues to work) very hard to stay competitive —there’s a lot of pride here.

Other notables include:
  • Server continues to manufacture in the USA — Richfield, Wisconsin to be exact.
  • A second shift in Production was added to utilize equipment for more hours, reduce overhead and overtime costs and best of all improve lead times.
  • About 18 months ago, several product lines were streamlined to eliminate unnecessary redundancies. Remember the Fudge, Carmel and Cheese Warmers with a forward facing spout warmer, backward facing spout warmer, without a spout warmer and without a pump for ladling? There was a version with no signs too. This change alone took 16 models down to 1.

The rest is insider information, but you get the point. Server remains dedicated to helping operators Serve Better by offering market driven solutions to everyday challenges and delivering quality products supported with great customer service.

Happy Holidays!
