Mid-States Distributing Gives EnerSys ‘Approved Supplier’ Status

EnerSys recently achieved Approved Supplier status at Mid-States Distributing Co. Inc. EnerSys manufactures the ODYSSEY brand of batteries.

Mid-States is a buying cooperative that was founded in 1954 and whose retail members have become the nation’s premier retailers in the farm and home store channel, according to the group. The cooperative is approaching 700 stores in 34 states and five Canadian provinces. As an Approved Supplier, EnerSys now has access to the buyers for the Mid-States member stores.

“ODYSSEY batteries are an ideal solution for a variety of applications-whether for automotive, marine and powersports applications or for today’s farm equipment,” said Tom Rafferty, national account manager at EnerSys. “As a Mid-States Approved Supplier, we not only have the opportunity to offer customers the ODYSSEY battery product line, but also to be part of a program built upon integrity, quality and reliability.”
