A house RESOLUTION

to recognize and commend Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America for its outstanding service in providing unwavering support to business in the palmetto state.

Whereas, in these tough economic times when the supply-chain crisis has continued to grip American businesses, it is entirely appropriate for the South Carolina House of Representatives to pause in its deliberations to acknowledge the excellent work of Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America; and

Whereas, led by President and CEO Mike Marusic, this fine company has provided unwavering support to Columbia's Carolina Business Equipment in its drive to supply uninterrupted support to the businesses of the great State of South Carolina and connecting areas of both Georgia and North Carolina; and

Whereas, as the preeminent office technology dealer in the State of South Carolina, Carolina Business Equipment, with the help of Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America, has positioned itself to supply users of office technology from the copy and print side of business requirements to fulfill those needs that present challenges to others; and

Whereas, while others continue to rely on a "just in time" inventory model, Carolina Business Equipment is celebrating forty-eight years of operation, enjoying yet another building opening with the expansion of a new warehouse at its corporate headquarters in Columbia, South Carolina; and

Whereas, with gratitude, the House salutes Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America and extends best wishes for much continued success in the days ahead. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and commend Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America for its outstanding service in providing unwavering support to business in the Palmetto State.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to President and CEO Mike Marusic of Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America.
