On January 15 and 16, 2014, LaMotte Company hosted its first Latin American Summit as it welcomed distributors arriving from México, Columbia, Argentina, Peru, Trinidad, Costa Rica, and Panamá. Conferees gathered at Washington College for two days of intense round-table discussions on water quality testing technology, sales and marketing strategies, and building a joint vision of the future.
Company President David LaMotte gave a keynote presentation stressing the importance of the Americas and distributors to LaMotte’s continuing success. He later recognized the distributors who have been with the company the longest, as well as those with the most sales and the most improved. Attendees were treated to a tour of the LaMotte plant, a walking tour of Historic Chestertown and dinning at local restaurants. Going forward, the summit significantly helped cement LaMotte’s relationships in the Americas for the foreseeable future.
The LaMotte Company is located on its own 15-acre industrial park in colonial Chestertown on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Established in 1919, LaMotte is a manufacturer of environmental test equipment including analytical reagents, laboratory apparatus, electronic instrumentation, and complete portable test kits for chemical analysis of water and soil.
