Indianapolis, IN – May 25, 2016 - 118 Member Companies and 99 Vendor Partners totaling over 500 participants worked hard and played hard during the cooperative’s annual convention held from May 17 – May 19.

This year's sports theme was a hit from opening reception Tuesday evening at Lucas Oil Stadium, home of the Indianapolis Colts, to Thursday’s End Zone dinner and awards ceremony. IWDC’s traditional Vendor Show Specials brought significant savings to Members and multimillions in sales to participating Vendors. Skills were honed and an extensive offense playbook was drilled at Vendor sponsored presentations and Member led workshops.

The IWDC is a cooperative, formed in 1994, which leverages the strengths of its independent welding distributor Members across North America. IWDC Member companies collectively represent over $2.2B in sales, serving a wide range of industries. The common denominator is that these industries look to them for industrial, specialty, and medical gases as well as related equipment, welding hardgoods, and consumables. End-use customers served by IWDC Members benefit from having the unparalleled expertise of a local Member distributor who has access to national-scale purchasing and marketing programs.
