ControlOMatic to help buyers by lowering prices

ControlOMatic, an award winning manufacturer of saltwater chlorine generators in Grass Valley, CA., is bucking inflation by lowering prices on some of their most popular models. In a time with supply chain issues and the highest inflation rates in decades, this business strategy seems to be headed in the wrong direction.

“It’s not that we had these huge profit margins to begin with,” says CEO Melinda Kohnke. “We’ve actually been running pretty lean, and supply chain issues were a problem for us last year.”

Kohnke explains, “One of the biggies was to move the company into a very large commercial manufacturing facility, which in turn allows us to manufacture substantially more products in a single run.” “We also brought a mechanical engineer inhouse for product design reviews and quality control improvements.”

For more information, contact ControlOMatic, Inc 12146 Charles Drive, Grass Valley, CA 95945. Telephone 530-205-4520 www.controlomatic.com
