McKesson Medical-Surgical national sales meeting highlights investments in distribution network, technology and tools
Collaboration, celebration and acceleration were themes of McKesson Medical-Surgical’s national sales meeting this spring in Las Vegas, Nevada. Approximately 1,600 McKesson Medical-Surgical attendees and 187 supplier companies were on hand.
“We are making the conscious decision to invest for growth,” Gary Keeler, president, sales and marketing, told those in attendance. “We are investing in our distribution network and new distribution centers, our private fleet, technology and tools for you and our customers, and we are investing in you.” Keeler reported that the company is adding over 100 people in supporting roles across the business.
“Our National Sales Conference brings together our sales teams from across the country and across all market segments in one location,” added Randy King, senior communications manager. “It’s a great chance for our team to network, further develop key relationships and learn how to solve problems.
“The meeting is also where we recognize our top performers and celebrate everything our teams accomplished in the previous year. Most importantly, we plan the meeting so our sales teams leave equipped to more rapidly grow and succeed. It’s always a kickoff to our fiscal year, and Vegas was no exception.”
