Raleigh USA recognized its top 25 Raleigh and Diamondback bicycle dealers for 2007 and said it would take them on a tour of its porduction facilities in China.
“It is an honor and a privilege to recognize these dealers and we are very grateful for their support for our company and brands,” said Rickey Strawn, Raleigh America's Director of Sales.
As part of the Raleigh America's tradition of recognizing and rewarding these top dealers, an annual Heron Council trip and Gala is held for the dealers. This year's trip will take them to China February 23rd through March 1st. The itinerary includes visits to the cities of Shanghai, Guangzhou and Hong Kong, along with tours of Raleigh America's key manufacturing facilities. This year's Gala event will be held in Hong Kong on February 29th and each dealer will receive an award presented by Raleigh America's Chief Executive Officer Bill Austin, President Steve Meineke, and Director of Sales Rickey Strawn.
Heron Council Dealers were selected for their achievement of outstanding sales and increased purchase volume in 2007.
