Four Seasons - Love It - Page 2 - tanTALK

Well, I know that they bought SEVERAL smaller distributors in the South and i believe a TRADE Magazine.I don't know all the specifics, but I'll try to get them for you. If you doubt me, E-mail Greg Klesius of Soakin' Up The Ray's. He has FIRST HAND knowledge of the Backhanded Business practices that 4 Seasons uses. They put one of his Private Label Customers out of business.

But, they give "GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE".Yeah, eventually to YOUR Customers!

The way I look at this situation, I will keep buying from Four Seasons until they move in on my area....I figure a huge corp. like Four Seasons will know "hot spots" regardless if they have my business or not and in the meantime I am saving money, getting great customer service, personal attention and lots of freebies that I can hand out to my customers. If I receive flyers from other distributors all I do is call my Rep. and she is happy to meet those particular prices.

What other distributors did they purchase and what private label company ??

I agree. Why would you buy from a distributor that owns salons? Have you tried Salon Support?

Mitzi & Nantan - You say Four Season owns a few Tanning Salons? Who do they own?

When Four Season's was sold to the new ownership. the tanning salons: Express Tan was not part of the sale.

Now Four Seasons does not own any salons.
