38 THE DISTRIBUTOR’S

38 THE DISTRIBUTOR’S LINK Key Bellevilles, Inc. is adding an additional 11,000 square feet to its present 77,000 square feet facility in order to add room for its extensive finished inventory. Key Bellevilles started in 1967 as a manufacturering concern, but since, has also become a master distributor for its lines of Belleville springs, all of which are manufactured in its facility in Freeport, PA. In response to its customer needs, Key Bellevilles has to expand its finished inventory, now with over 10,000 different sizes of Belleville springs in stock, including carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, inconel 718, inconel 750 and phosphorus bronze, titanium and H13. Over 80% of the orders received by Key Bellevilles now require same or next day shipment. The reason is there are a number of distributors and instead of them stocking inventory, they now stock the inventory for them and save them this cost. Other customers request immediate delivery because they know that they can wait and order springs when needed and they can expect immediate shipment. As a result of this business plan, Key Bellevilles now supplies companies in over 65 different countries.
