| Operating a
successful convenience-gas business in today's tough economy
is challenging especially if you're an independent retailer.
Being cost-efficient has never been more critical for c-stores
as increased channel blurring continues to change the face
of convenience retailing. To compete, retailers must find
the right products, at competitive prices, and they need
to have strong support from their distributors to help
them succeed. No one knows this more than Hyde's Distribution.
Our national sales force interacts daily with all retail
channels and a network of wholesale distributors throughout
Canada.
Convenience advantage
For the convenience of the independent retailer, Hyde's
sells products only through
|
wholesale distributors
enabling the retailer to obtain Hyde's products at competitive
pricing without building a major inventory. Finding products
that fit for the convenience channel, such as the award-winning
Kodak GS Compact Picture Maker and innovative new confectionery
products from European companies Felföldi, Sweetspa
and Sweet Cred, means c-gas retailers can be more competitive
with larger format stores. Hyde's is also the exclusive
Canadian distributor for Zippo and Case products and the
national distributor for Kodak products - all major worldwide
brands that will bring traffic to your store.
Innovation in confection is particularly critical and our
focus has been the convenience channel.

Sweetspa eggs are high quality Belgium chocolate products
from Italy that are competitively priced with unique
package designs found nowhere else in North America.
Quality products like these give retailers the competitive
edge they need.
Proven success
In today's fast-paced digital world, customers want
the latest and greatest technology that can save them
time and Hyde's delivers. From memory cards to flash
drives, we can help customers with their digital camera
processing needs. Stores that now carry the Kodak GS
Compact Picture Maker have shown double-digit increases
in growth in the photographic category and this product
recently received a People's Choice Award at the 2009
NACDA Convenience Innovation Awards.
For retailers interested in this machine, our sales
team will help find the right in-store location for
the product, demonstrate how to use it and be available
for technical support. Hyde's works hard to ensure
our leadership position with the latest technology
and product innovation, enabling our customers to have
the competitive edge they need to succeed in today's
marketplace.
