OneCoast and Mud Pie Sign a Long Term Representation Agreement

Mud Pie, Atlanta GA and OneCoast, Atlanta GA, both announced that they have signed a long term representation contract extension.

In 2006, Mud Pie made a decision to become part of OneCoast’s, then new, national representation model. For the past eight years, OneCoast has represented Mud Pie in all 50 states and both have experienced significant growth during this time. For the first five years, Mud Pie was part of OneCoast’s first National Division which is a focused line package model representing less than 10 vendors. In 2012, OneCoast and Mud Pie began to build an industry first single vendor sales division dedicated to selling only Mud Pie products.

“Our relationship with OneCoast is truly collaborative with the sales reps functioning as an extension of the Mud Pie brand”, says Fred Pannek, President of Mud Pie. “And now with the evolution of a dedicated OneCoast sales organization that only sells Mud Pie products it was clear that Mud Pie and OneCoast would continue our relationship for the long term.”

“Mud Pie is one of the most progressive companies in our industry” says John Keiser, CEO of OneCoast. It has been an honor to represent them. We have always shared the same passion for the success of our retail customers and it has been the driving force behind our working relationship.”

The long term extension of the agreement represents OneCoast’s and Mud Pie’s commitment to continue to provide outstanding products and services to the independent retailers for many years to come.
