New Leadership For Local Appliance Dealer
When shopping for new appliances, Americans are likely to head to a big box retailer with limited selection and even more limited service. But here on the Monterey Peninsula, Built In Distributors (BID) offers more than 50 top-tier brands such as Thermador, Viking, Speed Queen, Miele, Whirlpool, Wolf, LG and Sub-Zero “BID has been in business since 1962,” says President Randall Freeman. “We started by selling to builders and also the community. Now we’re committed to expanding that service going forward.” BID is now under the umbrella of Teamshares, a company that focuses on acquiring high-end legacy businesses nationwide, ensuring that they continue to thrive and honor their well-earned respect to employees and the public.
“All of our employees enjoy an ownership stake in the company,” Freeman explains. That ensures the customer that the people they deal with have a commitment to the highest level of customer service.
BID’s 5,000 square-foot Seaside showroom is set up to allow the customer to browse appliances in a comfortable, user-friendly shopping experience. Many products are in stock, ready for pickup or delivery. There’s also a large showroom across the bay in Santa Cruz. “We’re focused on servicing Monterey, Santa Cruz and San Benito Counties.”
