Playbook FAQ’s  WHY THE CHANGE? 

Q: Why did you make this change?  Why Arlington? A:  We have been managing the marketing, purchasing, and distribution efforts of Arlington Industries,  Carolina Wholesale, and Digitek combined for the past two years.  We feel that combining our efforts to  one focused brand will allow us to provide more programs, solutions, and services without interference  from our own competing brands.  The name ARLINGTON was selected as we feel it maintains the most  recognition of our three brands in the marketplace.  Q:   Are Carolina Wholesale and Digitek in trouble, been sold, or now out‐of‐business?  A:  No – None of the companies were sold.  In fact, Carolina Wholesale Group has owned Arlington  Industries since 2004 and purchased Digitek in 2016.  The decision was made to merge the 3 brands to 1  name to provide all reseller partners a focused approach to our valued services and solutions.  This  change has been announced in 2018 and will go into effect January 1, 2019.  Q: Was there a change in ownership?  A:  Larry Huneycutt has been the sole owner of the Carolina Wholesale Group (CWG) since 2000 after  being owner of Carolina Wholesale Office Machines since the early 1980's.  Larry has been the owner of  Arlington Industries since CWG purchased them in 2004 and has been the owner of Digitek since his  acquisition of them in 2016.  Larry Huneycutt has been and will remain the sole owner of ARLINGTON. 

Q:   How will this change impact my business? A:  You will begin to see new programs and enhanced products and promotional offerings as the new  blended ARLINGTON.   

Q: Will I be receiving the same quality of service I did before from CW or Digitek?  A:  Yes.  In fact, the combination of our three distribution brand will allow our employees to focus  programs to all resellers, provide more expansive vendor programs, and extend more valuable sales  resources to our customers than ever before.
