REGIONS
North America (Canada, United States, and Mexico) is a large divers area. Their are many different cultural pockets here: Canada, New England, Mid Atlantic, The South, Midwest, Texas, Southern California, Northern California, the North West, The Mexican boarder, and the interior of Mexico are all very different places. Each area runs at a different pace and has its own style. While each market we are involved in is made up of different relationships the people in each region are slightly different.
New England: We started in New England as Assembly Products which is a Manufactuers' Rep Firm focuses on the Printed Circuit Board Assembly market. Then in 2011 we added Palmac which is a Industrial Tool Distributor. The two Companies combined to cover most of the products assembled in New England. This makes Blackstone a Rep Firm and Distributor for New England.
