Price Announcement—Effective September 2, 2024

Dear Sequel Partner,

We all experience inflationary pressures in our everyday lives. Unfortunately, Sequel is not immune to these pressures. To date, we have been successful at finding creative ways to deal with most of the increases so that we can help protect your position in the market. For those increases that cannot be covered, we have absorbed them internally.

As you may be aware, earlier this year one of the domestic suppliers of a critical component used in PVC plasticizer exited the market and is no longer producing this component. The market has gone through a series of significant adjustments in price as work was performed to locate alternate supplies at a reasonable cost. Supply has since settled into a new norm at a new price. Due to the significance of this cost increase we need to implement a price increase and pass this along to the market.

To this end, new pricing will be in effect for purchase orders received by Sequel Wire on and after September 2, 2024. Our sales and customer service teams will provide you with new price lists so you can evaluate the impact of these pricing adjustments.

All products will be affected by this increase; however, due to the plasticizer issue discussed above, PVC will bear the burden of the increases. We find these increases, which range from 1% to 2.5%, necessary to allow us to maintain our reliable product quality and performance.

We appreciate our partnership with your company and look forward to a tremendous future together.

Sequel - What's in a name?

The dictionary defines sequel as “work that continues the story or develops the theme of an earlier one.”

The key to our prior success was to be the low-cost producer. This was achieved by deploying highly efficient, best in class manufacturing equipment and hiring employees that were entrusted and empowered to produce high-quality fabricated and insulated wire with pride. This was unique in an industry that was dominated by large organizations that were slowed by layers of management and legacy costs that made them uncompetitive.

We believe these conditions are repeating themselves and there is a great opportunity to take advantage of the current market conditions. The industry is once again dominated by large organizations that have grown by acquiring smaller, more customer focused companies, which are then burdened with high costs and slowed with paralyzing bureaucracy. As these large companies have grown, they are focused internally and lose sight of the customer.

Sequel Wire and Cable will quickly become a meaningful player in the industry by employing the latest technologies, hiring the best employees and maintaining an unrelenting focus on taking care of the customer. Now is the time for a sequel!

“The market is ready for a good, sustainable supplier who will focus on the customers’ needs, and give them the quality and service they desire, and frankly, should expect.”
– RICH CARR
