Our Company Bard Enterprises SE LLC is committed to providing outstanding service to the distributors, manufacturers, national chain headquarters, and end-users in the janitorial, packaging, paper, industrial, safety and food service marketplace. By practicing the “Golden Rule” philosophy in our relationships, we “treat others as we would like to be treated ourselves.” We promise professional and honest representation of our principals’ products. Through determination, hard work and successful planning, we actively and personally serve our distributors and end users while providing profitable sales growth for our manufacturers.
Our Owner Paul Bard has served in the jan/san/paper supply industry since 1989. He entered the industry as a National Sales Manager for Microtron Abrasives, and then moved to Norton Company as their National Sales Manager. He learned the janitorial and paper markets from the ground up, spending many hours at the end-user level helping distributors serve their customers through training and promotional programs. Paul started Bard Enterprises in 1995 because he felt a need to get back to the basics of business by genuinely servicing and training the distributor community through extensive end-user focus.
Our History Bard Enterprises was established in 1995 as a sole proprietorship with its headquarters in Charlotte, NC. We immediately set out to represent high quality manufacturers of janitorial, chemical and paper disposable products. For the past 17 years, Bard Enterprises has continued to grow and expand, partnering along the way with some of the most recognizable manufacturers and brand names in the industry. Today, Bard Enterprises employs 9 outside reps and we provide coverage to all of North and South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia as well as portions of Mississippi and Arkansas. Combined with our strong end user and distribution relationships in the market, our experience has proven to be a successful formula that allows our manufacturer principals to achieve high levels of sales growth and profitability.
Our Vision for the Future Our plans include at least one more sales associate and another full-time inside person. We will continue to explore any acquisition/merger opportunities that may help to strengthen our company through diversification. We will maintain a focus to build our core distributor business by establishing strong relationships in the field with key distributor sales personnel and major end-users. Bard Enterprises is currently regarded as one of the most professional manufacturers’ representative organizations in our service area. In the upcoming quarters, we will continue to invest at least 50% of our selling efforts to key end-user development. |
