In 1998, Mr. White founded Blackwood Industries in his basement with two products and an eye to stripping the fat out of a bloated supply chain. He was determined to deliver quality products at sharp prices and his customers responded. Today, John enjoys warm relationships with high level executives throughout the retail and food service industries. |
