Pentair recognized by True Value

Pentair has been recognized as True Value Company's 2010 Partner of the Year.

The award was announced at the Chicago-based co-op's annual vendor award banquet in Chicago.

Pentair, which makes water-management products including Flotec pumps, said the award was based on "a 35% increase in retail sales at point-of-sale, margin expansion, consistent shipments with on-time/complete delivery rates at 95% or better, and participation in several key retailer-support programs."
