=========================================================================
Chicago and Butler, Pa. - Dec. 10, 1996 - The future of dealer-owned
cooperatives Cotter & Co. and ServiStar Coast to Coast is now in their
members' hands.
On Dec. 10, 1996, 10,500 dealers affiliated with those companies received
a detailed package of information explaining the specifics of a merger
between the industry's first- and third-largest dealer-owned buying groups,
which was approved by each co-op's board of directors on Monday, 12-9-96.
If approved by the majority of dealers, the merged company will be called
TruServ Inc., with 10,500 dealer-members and sales to those dealers
exceeding $4.5 billion. The deal, which would take the form of a buyout by
Cotter of ServiStar's stock, could be completed by July 1, 1997.

~ GECOMA - SPECIALTY CONCRETE PREFABS: http://itre.com/gecoma
Posted by Michele Bassan: bassan.michele@intercity.shiny.it
==============================================================
Ordering concrete prefabs over the net is not everyday's experience. With
GECOMA's products, things might change...
GECOMA has developed specialty prefabs, designed and brought to perfection
in several years, taking into account production, delivery and installation
issues. In short we offer:
- Concrete prefab for river banks protection, designed to be
environmentally friendly, extremely effective, and cheap to produce and
install; approved, used and endorsed by several public transportation
authorities in Italy (railways, highways); the patented name of the
product is "Bank Shield"
- Concrete prefab modular element for cemeterial buildings, the "Loculi
Block"
Of course exporting concrete prefabs from Italy is not economically sound,
but technology transfer agreements are your fast route to exploit the
results of our 20+ years experience.
