As an independent-channel-only manufacturing partner, Speed Queen is 100 percent committed to growing and improving relationships with NMG Members and other independent retailers, as well as their end customers. The company recently introduced light-commercial products, as well as pet care features on its front-load products. Plus, Speed Queen has spent time assessing its processes to identify what caused slowdowns in production over the past few years and has made changes to optimize mix production, secure the necessary supply of chips to build machines and ensure adequate bandwidth to meet consumer demand. Cody Masluk shares more details on all of these enhancements, as well as what Speed Queen is seeing in terms of 2023 buying trends.
