Revolutionizing a global industry.  As we take a minute to reflect on the 2010 season, for some it's been a successful, busy year filled with new opportunities, customers, and prosperous growth.  For others, the unpredictable factors of weather, business, and the economy have hindered abilities to grow.  Regardless, for everyone the key is always the same - take some time to step back from the stress of the prior season, recognize both successes and failures and begin to make realistic plans, changes, and commitments to take specific actions to prepare for the great season of opportunity that lies ahead.

Here at Ray Padula Enterprises, the 2010 season marked a year of successful national distribution of the Ray Padula brand and we are eagerly anticipating what's ahead for us as we begin to focus on 2011.  Now, more than ever, retailers across the world are realizing the importance of aligning themselves with manufacturers, brands, and products that are a true partner in growing their business.  As you explore the 2011 product collection, and introduce yourself to our many new product launches, merchandising formats, and programs you will find that we are eager and committed to becoming all our our dealer's true partner in Lawn and Garden.  At Ray Padula we recognize our commitment to you must extend far beyond just providing you with an exceptional line of watering products. 

I would like to take a moment to thank all of our retail partners, and most importantly, you, our customer for the success of our company so far.  Here's to making 2011 our best season yet!  

Raymond J. Padula  Jr.,  President & CEO, Ray Padula Enterprises
