MILWAUKEE — Johnstone Supply recognized Johnson Controls with two awards at its 2014 Spring Sales Planning Meeting and tradeshow in Nashville, Tennessee.

Johnson Controls HVAC leadership and the Coleman brand were recognized by receiving two of the four supplier awards presented at the event – the Johnstone Supply Award for Excellence in Sales and Marketing and the Johnstone Supply Corporate Liaison Award.

The Corporate Liaison Award highlights the individual contribution of Tim Brusseau, Johnson Controls unitary products group strategic distribution account manager, for helping Johnstone Supply achieve its 2013 business goals. Both awards acknowledge Johnson Controls’ commitment to providing its customers with a broad product offering, robust training programs, and focused sales support. According to Johnstone Supply, this commitment contributed to a 30 percent increase in sales for the distributor.
