Omni Services, Inc. Receives IDCO 2021 Outstanding Member Award

We are proud to announce that Omni Services, Inc. has earned the Outstanding Member Award from the Industrial Distributor Cooperative (IDCO) for 2021. The award recognizes Omni Services as a top member of the cooperative, founded in 1993 to increase purchasing power among independent, family-owned distributors serving the hose and connectors industry. Now with over seventy members, IDCO is at the leading edge of the fluid conveyance industry, and it is a tremendous honor to be recognized as an outstanding member of the group.

 In the face of unprecedented material shortages and supply chain issues, Omni Services utilized the extensive IDCO network to give our customers the best product quality and service possible. Buying from IDCO-approved suppliers allows Omni to widen the breadth of our product catalog and services to new and existing customers. In 2021, Omni Services bought from nearly forty IDCO-approved suppliers, increasing our IDCO purchases by 44% over the last year. This dramatic growth exemplifies Omni’s commitment to constantly improving our customer offering.

Omni’s Chief Financial Officer, Karen Brandvold, was on hand to accept the award at last week’s 2022 IDCO Expo along with a team of Omni employees. Brandvold writes, 

“We are honored to be recognized as an Outstanding IDCO member and proud to be a part of the IDCO organization, which is dedicated to helping family-owned independent distributors grow and survive in today’s competitive market.  The success of independent distributors ensures customers have continued access to a broad array of products and services.  We look forward to growing along with IDCO in the future.”

 Omni Services has been a member of IDCO since 2018.

About IDCO

The Independent Distributors Cooperative, or IDCO, was formed in 1993 with the purpose of leveling the playing field for industrial distributors in the face of large corporate distributors, or ‘big box’ distributors, attempting to monopolize the industry.

Brewery Hoses & Sanitary Fittings

Just as our customers have been serving up some great beer, wine and liquor, Omni has long been serving up the right hose and connector combinations to meet and exceed our customers’ expectations. Because Omni prides itself on being a fluid conveyance specialist and has been working with the brewery industry for many years, we can help source the right product by application. Whether it is brewery hose, washdown hose or sanitary fittings, Omni Services has what brewers need.

FABRICATION:

Because the beer or liquor that is transferred through a brewery hose is meant for consumption, it is essential that the brewery hose is fabricated in the proper manner. Hoses that are mis-crimped in the fabrication process can cause bacteria build-up after being put into service and especially after a clean-in-place (CIP) process has been performed. Omni Services can properly attach fittings to the customer requirements for all three industry acceptable attachment methods: banding, crimping and internal expansion. Check out the video below for an in-depth look.

BREWERY HOSES:

Working with premier suppliers like Continental, we can provide premium quality hoses at varying price points, all fabricated to the highest standards. From the world renowned Purple Snake to the versatile ExtremeFlex Beverage, Omni Services has the stock and knowledge to help you choose the right product for your brewery, winery or distillery.
