CUSTOMER FEATURE
Working With Blish-Mize
One-stop shopping is important to the
store’s customers, who come to the store
from Palmer and surrounding towns.
“We have good customers,” says
Sharon. “They’re very loyal.”
More important than pricing, the
couple says, is the availability of inven-
tory. “Our customers want to know they can
come into our store and get what they need,”
says Bill. “They aren’t extremely price-sensi-
tive, but they want a fair price. What’s most
important to them, though, is that we carry
the products they’re looking for.”
And that’s when the couple turns to
Blish-Mize. “We appreciate how they
always have products available,” Bill
says. “The staff is willing to work with
independent retailers, no matter the size
of the operation, and offers a wide variety
of pricing on good products. It fits in well
with our philosophy to offer our custom-
ers quality products at reasonable prices.”
From ordering online—“The website is
so helpful; we can order and pay online,”
says Sharon—to regular deliveries—“You
can set your watch by Blish-Mize trucks
and their delivery times,” Bill says—to the
SmartBook and market deals, the couple
is happy with the partnership.
“It’s a great fit for us,” Bill says.
“You can set your watch by Blish-Mize trucks
and their delivery times.”
