FROM THE STRATA VAULT
Validating your access to this presentation.
Six platforms built into a single portal. Less admin. More selling.
We invest in capabilities while other groups cut costs.
One partnership replaces 400+ individual vendor relationships.
You already run a legitimate dealership. Strata gives independents the leverage national chains get.
You don't change who you are. You gain what they have.
If you're building for the long term, your purchasing should work like it.
Foodservice equipment dealers across North America buy through Strata.
That combined volume gets you better pricing and better programs.
You keep your independence. You gain the leverage that comes with scale.
Less time managing vendors, more time running your business.

When your team knows the equipment, they quote with confidence and close faster.
Your salespeople hunt down manufacturer materials, work with outdated files, and send proposals that don't look professional.
