WAYNE, N.J., Sept. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Anscott Industries, Inc. today announced that the company has launched an eCommerce system under the internet site http://www.caledclean.com/. "The eCommerce system will strategically support our national distribution network, we believe in the three tier system," states Jack Belluscio, President of Anscott. He continues, "While most manufacturers are using eCommerce to eliminate distribution, we see it as a tool to improve service for end-users, while taking orders for the local distributor."
The company believes it can use the combination of eCommerce, local distribution and proven products to expand market share in the professional garment services industry, while exceeding the technical needs of professional garment cleaners. The US Department of Commerce SIC721 tracks this sector with more than $18 billion dollars in gross receipts annually. "We see the industry's potential consumption of our product category at more than 2% of gross receipts or $360 million dollars annually," states, Jack Belluscio. He continues, "I'm proud of the industrial team we've assembled, I'm very confident they can elevate our business in conjunction with our national distribution and technical service channel."
