Nalpac and CEO Steve Craig Honored With XBIZ Awards

FERNDALE, Mich. — Adult distributor Nalpac said that it was pleased to have received two awards during the recent XBIZ Show and XBIZ Awards events — the 2019 XBIZ Award for Progressive Distributor of the Year, as well as an honor for Nalpac CEO Steve Craig, who won Chief Executive of the Year.

Nalpac took the trophy for Progressive Distributor of the Year back to Detroit with the company’s first-ever XBIZ win at the 2019 XBIZ Awards.

In just under two years of new ownership, Steve and Andy Craig have transformed an aging business and turned it into a progressive, innovative, technology-driven distribution powerhouse.

Now operating out of a new facility in Ferndale with modern features, an open office floor plan, custom showroom and close to 200,000 square feet of warehouse space, Nalpac’s plans for continued innovation and growth are showing no signs of slowing, Andy Craig said.

“We are honored to win the 2019 XBIZ Award for Progressive Distributor of the Year,” he said. “We have spent countless hours this year focused on building tools to help support our retail customers while also offering our manufacturing partners unique marketing, branding, and sales opportunities.

“Now in our new facilities, we have the capabilities and manpower to offer a full range of distribution, fulfillment and marketing services that set Nalpac apart from our competitors.”

Andy Craig said that 2018 was an eventful year, highlighted by the first-ever mobile app for adult retailers.

He said that the Nalpac Mobile App, available at the Google Play Store and the Apple app store for iOS devices, has reinvented the once-complicated ordering hassle for Nalpac retail customers.      

With the Nalpac Mobile App, retailers have an easy to use, handheld resource to place orders, or access account information, he said. The Nalpac Mobile App empowers busy retailers to place orders directly from their mobile device, including while on the retail floor. Retailers can search for items by scanning any UPC, entering Nalpac or manufacturer part numbers or simply searching by keyword. Users can build a cart to place an order in a matter of minutes or create one or more “shopping lists” to later view, change and ultimately order.

Nalpac CEO Steve Craig was the big winner for Chief Executive of the Year at the 2019 XBIZ Exec Awards in an exclusive ceremony during the 2019 XBIZ Show.

Winner for Chief Executive of the Year is recognized and defined by XBIZ as “the most demanding and responsible person in a company must not only oversee every aspect of an enterprise but must also serve as its vision. The buck truly stops at this desk.”

“I am very humbled to be acknowledged by XBIZ and my peers as the 2019 Chief Executive of the Year. The award may have been presented to me, but it truly recognizes the accomplishments of our team. We are grateful for the customers who support us and the brands we are privileged to represent,” Steve Craig said.

Nalpac customers can place orders using the Nalpac Mobile app or by contacting their Nalpac sales rep with any questions. New Nalpac customers can email sales@naplac.com to get an account set up.
