WHAT 7 THINGS HAPPENED RECENTLY AT FRICK COMPANY* IN WAYNESBORO, PENNA
7 important things for
and you:
1. First of all, on a foundation of our 107 years' experience, our new management has established a growth policy that stresses new product develop ment, quality control, and expansion of field services. 2. New branch offices are being opened and the sales-engineering staffs of existing branches as well as of the home office are being increased. 3 . A compressor of new design is being developed. This, like our current dependable line, will handle a variety of refrigerants such as Freon, ammonia, propane, butane and carbon dioxide. 4. A new circulating system using refrigerated sea water has been introduced to commercial fishing fleets, at a saving to boat owners. 3. Completely insulated Shell-Ice makers have been "packaged" for convenient field installation. 6. Service to the growing poultry industry has been highlighted by our new counter-flow-continuous poultry chiller, which uses refrigerated water in stead of ice. 7. As part of the growth policy, we are increasing the number of Frick distributors. Some of our dis tributors have been with us 50 years. All of which indicates one thing: Frick is "on the move!" If you're passing through Waynesboro this summer, stop in and see for yourself; you'll be able to enjoy our remodeled and air conditioned offices.
