PBI-Gordon Corp. is extending its October end-user early order program (EOP) deadline for customers in states in the South and Southeast affected by hurricanes Michael and Florence.
To give them more time to focus on recovery efforts, PBI-Gordon professional turfgrass management customers in North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Georgia and Virginia will have until Nov. 30 to take advantage of the maximum rebate allowed for their specific purchases.
“The hurricane season so far this year has been disruptive and damaging, and we realize how much stress it has placed on our distributor and end-user partners in the affected states,” said Doug Obermann, PBI-Gordon vice president of professional and agricultural sales. “It is our hope that, by extending the EOP pricing deadline, we can alleviate some of their concerns and worry.”

For one project, Belgard pavers replaced the original gravel path at the entrance of the local soup kitchen that feeds the homeless and less fortunate population of the city.
Oldcastle Superlite and all of its local business partners were recognized on Nov. 6 in a ceremony that took place at Chandler City Hall.
