PBI-Gordon Corporation has extended its October End-User Early Order Program (EOP) deadline for customers in states in the south and southeast affected by hurricanes Michael and Florence. The company is providing professional turfgrass management customers in North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Georgia and Virginia until November 30, 2018 to take advantage of the maximum rebate allowed for their specific purchases.
With a full line of herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, growth regulators and other products, PBI-Gordon Corporation is a national provider in the professional turf and ornamental management industry. Those who are interested in this program should contact a PBI-Gordon distributor or visit EOP.PBIGordonTurf.com.
Said Doug Obermann, PBI-Gordon vice president of professional and agricultural sales, “The hurricane season so far this year has been disruptive and damaging, and we realize how much stress it has placed on our distributor and end-user partners in the affected states. It is our hope that, by extending the EOP pricing deadline, we can alleviate some of their concerns and worry.”
