To rep or not to rep? That’s the question for many manufacturers aiming to make the most of their market opportunities. Finding the best fit, whether through a direct sales or brokered approach, is a critical decision that makes a significant difference in how rapidly and successfully revenue targets can be met for the sales organization and the customers they serve.
For over 38 years, Nexus has been a vital link for manufacturers to distributors and operators whose choices of products are make or break on both sides of the prosperity equation. The Pleasanton, Calif.,-based brokerage, which began as a small family-operated small business in the Oakland Hills, has expanded its considerable reach into 11 Western states.
Nexus specializes in selling and marketing food, foodservice disposables, janitorial supplies and equipment to foodservice, paper, and janitorial distribution companies who resell the products to large operator customers such as restaurant chains, schools, colleges, hospitals, government agencies, and stadium venues.
