We have a dedi- cated, talented team that is driven by our success and commitment to the industry. Not Only My Career, It Is My Life In the early 1970s, I saw a need for a non- chemical, environmentally sound form of weed control that would assist homeown- ers and professionals in creating low- maintenance landscapes. I feel about the DeWitt (Cont'd. from p. 4) lawn and garden industry just like Arnold Palmer feels about golf. I love it so much I'd do it for free. This industry is not only my career, it is my life. We are DeWitt. No chemicals then or now. One company. One call. More than 600 products. Visit DeWitt at booth #19036.

As a matter of fact, any tool- box, vehicle and home emergency kit won't be complete without one. It also stands upright to use hands free as a room light.

The new and improved versions of these products will maintain all of these features, but now be offered at an even better value for the consumer. All three tools will have a new glass-filled, nylon plastic head that is lighter and just as durable as its prede- cessor cast aluminum head. "Our tests show that the rigidity and strength of the new plastic head is com- parable to the strength and durability of the cast aluminum metal head found on previous models, but it allows us to cut material costs and improve the sharpen- ing process without compromising func- tion," said Louis Chalfant, Senior Product Engineer for Smith's Consumer Products Inc. This simple change in material allowed Smith's to cut its product cost in half and pass along the savings to its cus- tomer and consumer. As a result, the new Smith's Consumer Products (Cont'd. from p. 1) and improved outdoor tool sharpeners will enter the market at a retail price $10.00 lower than current pricing of $19.99. The three Edgework products will still offer oversized handles for use with gloves, large finger guards for safe and secure sharpening at all times and the wire-bristled cleaning brush that conve- niently stores in the handle. Russ Cowen, Marketing Manager, said, "This will instantly improve our presence in the hardware and lawn and garden markets. We now have competi- tively priced tools that offer the quality and durability associated with the Smith's brand, and I am confident our consumers will appreciate the savings."

Twenty-eight years after its inception, the company continues to grow and evolve. JGR Copa started at the beach and continues to this day to work with all the major big box beach stores.

This year's line includes fresh original designs and bright colors, as well as new highly anticipated licensed prod- ucts. JGR Copa is excited to announce a continued partnership with Corona, Budweiser and Bud Light. These brand- ed items will include chairs, umbrellas, towels and mats. It feels that these brands represent a lifestyle of pool, patio and sports. Most stores are already carrying these brands, so it's a natural extension to add the chairs, umbrellas and towels. A new ready to sell pallet display program will also be introduced at the show, and will be available for the coming year. This pro- gram will utilize floor space and save shelf space. JGR Copa will also provide planograms for the stores that are limit- ed floor space. This is a great time to work with a company that was born, works, lives and understands the beach.
