CEDA Jasper 1972

Introduction of the Performance Analysis Report (PAR Survey) was considered a milestone in the association’s statistical gathering activities in that it gave members for the first time the opportunity to compare their operating figures (anonymously) with those of other distributors.

And we find a first mention in the CEDA minutes of what is to become the giant of the industry: “It was reported by L. Bokofsky that Westburne will be applying as a member.”
