"I have owned & operated a landscape/lawn care business in the Charlotte area continuously since the 1980's. An important part of any such business is the support you receive from your equipment trade account company. For many years, the reputable go-to, for honest, reliable, truly friend-worthy service for all of my trade support services could be found at Mack Blythe's establishments on Monroe Rd. When he retired, however, this superior service that I had come to expect retired with him. The new relationship I attempted to foster there for trade related services left me stung, harmed, & wary. It was crooked & I was dis-served!\nThree years ago I had had enough of any of the concerns operating anywhere nearby my location. \nI sucked it up & tried a business a little furthur from my location. ***That would be Joshua Joubert's Interstate Supplies & service.***\nI was naturally wary there, too, but with each visit, my concerns were rendered unwarranted. This is a family operation, Just like Mack Blythe's business was. You can go in and you will be met by a team of friends, family & associates. \nJoshua, Grant, David, Virginia, Cliff, Mary, Terry, Mackenzy, Sonnet, to name a few, are ready to assist. And they know why they are there, too, each one of them. \nTheir store is a larger complex of connected buildings with each area designed to operate as one big service concern: parts, service, sales, phone support, etc. it is logical & it works. \nIf you are a small business and you would prefer to have a return to the style of commerce we enjoyed, \"back in the day\", do yourself a favor & start up a relationship with Joshua & Co. over at Interstate Supplies & Service. You'll be glad you did. \nTell them Ken, The Urban Farmer sent you!!"^^ . . . "0"^^ . "0"^^ . "2016-08-20T00:00:00"^^ . "5"^^ . "1"^^ . .
