NEW ALBANY, Miss. — Master-Bilt announced The Jay Mark Group as its newest independent sales and marketing representatives, effective as of August 1. The Jay Mark Group will be representing Master-Bilt in the Northern and Central Illinois region.

“We try to be more than just a standard rep group for our customers,” said Jim Heffernan, partner and president of The Jay Mark Group. “Along with our sales and support staff, we also have a full-time chef on staff and offer a 1,500 square foot test kitchen to our customers as well. It is one thing for sales people to ask questions about what the customer’s equipment needs are but oftentimes our chef can ask questions and offer a different perspective on fully analyzing their needs which proves to be highly beneficial.”

“Master-Bilt definitely offers products that we don’t currently rep, opening up new doors for us,” said Heffernan.  “Equipment such as Master-Bilt’s open air merchandisers allows us different opportunities for the grab-and-go marketplace.”

“We are confident that The Jay Mark Group will be very beneficial for Master-Bilt sales in this Illinois area,” said Kevin Fink, president of Standex Refrigerated Solutions Group. “A number of exciting factors include their long-standing history and experience in the industry, the culinary support they offer as an extension to their sales staff, and their fully-functioning test kitchen are among many key assets to this relationship.”
