FASCOMP CELEBRATES 20 YEARS….PLUS!<br />
by Stan Lockhart<br />
Fascomp, a leader in electronic<br />
hardware surpassed the 20-year<br />
mark last year while also celebrating<br />
record growth in 2021. Management<br />
utilized the business downturn during<br />
2020 to increase their inventory<br />
levels ahead of the rebound that we<br />
all experienced last year. To protect<br />
their workers during the pandemic<br />
outbreak, Fascomp instituted some<br />
extensive cleaning measures on all<br />
equipment between shifts and took<br />
additional steps toward worker safety that resulted in<br />
increased production efficiencies. This not only saved<br />
jobs, but also helped to increase inventory levels on<br />
popular sizes and styles within their product mix. This<br />
strategy has benefitted the company and customers<br />
alike who have come to depend on Fascomp for quick<br />
and friendly service!<br />
Fascomp continues to increase manufacturing<br />
capacity both in Connecticut and at their overseas<br />
facilities to support their extensive offering of standoffs,<br />
spacers, shoulder screws, captive screws and thumb<br />
screws, accounting for 75,000 SKU’s. In addition to<br />
their standard products, sales of blue-print specials now<br />
account for 30% of the company’s overall sales volume.<br />
Machined panel nuts, socket head captive screws and<br />
ball studs will further expand their customer reach<br />
and open new end-user markets that are serviced by<br />
fastener distributors. Capitalizing on their strong market<br />
presence, the owners, Mark Georgia and Jason Bertone<br />
believe in educating their customers and have created<br />
FASCOMP EMPLOYEES AT THEIR 2021 CHRISTMAS PARTY<br />
“Fascomp University” a power point presentation that<br />
helps orient sales, engineering and sourcing specialists<br />
to applications within the markets that utilize electronic<br />
hardware.<br />
The company is actively hiring additional office and<br />
warehouse staff to keep their service levels high during<br />
this continued period of business expansion. Erica Kail,<br />
the General Manager of the Orlando office has been with<br />
Fascomp since 2015 and oversees various positions<br />
while handling customer service and coordinating<br />
activities with the Connecticut manufacturing facility. A<br />
full product catalog is available online and they offer joint<br />
marketing initiatives.<br />
