Spirit of Durham Award- Mike Thomson

Mike Thomson is a deserving recipient of the Spirit of Durham Award.

As the number of Durham Enterprises (DE) customers grows larger and more complex, Mike helps to ensure that the customer receives their order as promised and delivered on time. For example, during the month of October, Mike spent hours arranging details with factories, QC teams, freight forwarders etc.... so that the recent Walgreens shipment wouldn't even touch the DE warehouse, but would be handled at a 3PL site. Mike also played an instrumental role in the recent Target order, that included relabeling hundreds and hundreds of clips.

His skills in the Supply Chain have been crucial, especially as the urgency of orders have increased and the demand for our product has grown. Earlier this year he was moved from the Imaginisce Supply Chain over to Gimme Clips Supply Chain. While he was overseeing the purchasing of the Imaginisce products, he implemented some key processes that helped regulate ordering and product line analysis. These processes have helped to systematize and improve efficiency.

Mike is also a tremendous thinker, analyzing data, and then communicating his recommendations to the team. If you ask any one of his co-workers they will tell you he's a fantastic chart/diagram creator and his spreadsheets are incredible!

Mike's humor and desire to be a team player have made him a company favorite. Anytime there is a stressful deadline looming ahead, Mike will be sure to bring laughter into the room.

We're so grateful to have Mike Thomson on our team. Congratulations Mike!
