Pinnacle Interior Elements at Surfaces handed out its 2006 Distributor of the Year award to Longust Distributing, based in Mesa, Ariz., with branches in Anaheim, Las Vegas and Albuquerque. The award is based on several factors, which include support of all product lines, incremental dollar and percentage increases in sales over the previous year, market penetration, display placement and program support.
 
“Longust is a ‘can do’ floor covering distributor,” according to Phil Cutts, vice president of sales for Pinnacle.  It addresses every facet of distribution with a sense of urgency. It creates unique programs for builders and fosters great relationships with key independent retailers.”
