Team Tri-Ed convened on Marco Island, Florida December 4th through 7th for its Annual North American Sales Meeting. With over 150 Tri-Ed staff and supplier partners participating, the weekend was a highly successful gathering for team-building and 2010 planning. 

“Tri-Ed has an outstanding staff and tremendous partnerships with our suppliers,” says COO Pat Comunale. “I am so proud of their efforts and accomplishments. Our annual Sales Meeting is always a great opportunity for us all to come together as a team. As we look ahead to 2010 our cohesiveness and focus will give us tremendous momentum to execute again in the New Year.”

Tri-Ed President Steve Roth and COO Pat Comunale kicked off the meeting which included presentations by motivational speaker Gregg Baron and Olympic Gold Medalist Jeff Blatnick. Emmy-winner and Grammy-nominated drummer Tom McWilliams also inspired the crowd with an incredible guest performance.

The meeting featured regional breakout sessions, Olympic team-building activities with Tri-Ed employees and suppliers, and a Karaoke party complete with a Tri-Ed panel of judges. Many of Tri-Ed’s valued vendor partners supported the meeting with game show- themed training sessions, a tabletop expo, as well as event and entertainment sponsorships.

The weekend wrapped up with the annual Awards Dinner. Tri-Ed’s Boston branch took home the President’s Cup, and over 30 employees were honored with awards for their achievement.
