| It was
October, 1967, when the first publication issue of the
Hy-lites was published. Before that, the "Hy-lites"
was a small, usually one-sheet letter sent out to inform
Hytrol distributors of Hytrol news and happenings. With this
first newsletter format, the Hy-lites became an important
sales tool for the Distributor Network. And although the
Hy-lites appearance has changed with the times, the format
continues to be basically the same.
Conveyor application continues to be the
main focus of the Hy-lites. Since that first issue, well over
400 major conveyor installations, or "case
histories," have been published in the newsletter. There
are also "Specials" featured from time to time which
shows Hytrol’s versatility.
Hytrol distributors and their news is also
an important part of the Hy-Lites. Stories of Hytrol’s
people, plans, and projects are also featured. New conveyor
models, promotions of key personnel, Stockyard information,
and important announcements are mandatory to keep our
distributors informed.
So, here we are at issue 400, still doing
what we started out to do and, we hope, getting better all the
time. We at Hytrol sincerely hope you have enjoyed the
Hy-lites over the years and have found it to be a useful and
important part of your Hytrol association. Thanks to you, we’ve
made it to Number 400 and we know we’ll reach Number 500. It’s
our Hy-lites and yours! |
Over thirty years of Hy-lites.
From the first issue in October, 1967, to October of the years
1977, 1987, and 1997, the Hy-lites continues to be Hytrol’s
first line of news. Here’s to another thirty years! |
