LED Source National Accounts Program Ensures One Centralized Point of Contact for Franchise Systems

February 25, 2014 // Franchising.com // Wellington, Fla. - LED Source®, the leading North American LED lighting solutions provider, has created a new custom LED lighting solution for popular Houston-based, Pinot's Palette - a pioneer of the popular "paint & sip" concept that puts a new spin on an entertaining night out. LED Source designed and implemented a new LED lighting system that reduces energy and operating costs while providing better light quality and a comfortable atmosphere for franchisees and customers alike.

Pinot's Palette used LED Source's National Accounts Partner Program to craft an LED lighting solution specific to their needs. The program ensures that LED Source will be the company's single point of contact for their entire system. Pinot's Palette previously used traditional halogen lamps, which sent energy costs soaring and emitted extra heat. LED Source created a solution utilizing state-of-the art LED lamps that reduced energy costs by 82 percent while cooling the physical atmosphere inside the location. Customers are now able to create art in a more pleasant environment with improved light levels.

Lighting industry veteran Marcel Fairbairn and his partner, Gavin Cooper, a world-renown lighting designer, founded LED Source in 2005. The company's National Accounts Partner Program was created to provide multi-unit businesses and franchise systems consistency throughout the entire supply chain process, while maintaining a centralized point of contact for LED lighting solutions. The program provides clients with a single go-to company for procurement, design services, product development, financing, project management, rebates and incentives.

"LED Source was able to meet and exceed my expectations with their quick turnaround and experience," said Charles Willis, co-founder and president of Pinot's Palette. "We are rolling out this lighting solution to franchisees across our system. Our customers are in love with the ambiance the LED lighting has created."

One of the first new Pinot's Palette locations to utilize the LED lighting plan was in Naperville, Ill. The lighting will be installed in all new locations and is also being rolled out for all currently existing franchise locations.
