Robert Miller, President of Future Electronics, Saves Customers Money with Supply Chain Solutions

Pointe Claire, Quebec (realtimepressrelease) November 24, 2015 – Robert Miller, President of Future Electronics, a global leading distributor of electronic components, is focused on helping customers set new trends and save money with strategic supply chain solutions.

Moving manufacturing off-shore has been a trend for many years in the electronics industry. Production has moved to low cost manufacturing areas around the world, including Mexico, Eastern Europe, China and Southeast Asia to name a few.

But there is a new trend of keeping or returning manufacturing to the Americas. Known as re-shoring, the trend has begun as companies look at their total costs of production, including the cost of managing the program, the challenges of communication, the risks to supply chain and product integrity, and the risk of stolen intellectual property. However in order to manufacture in the Americas and be competitive, customers must find ways to save money and make local production more affordable than using overseas options.

This is where the Future Electronics Strategic Supply Chain Solutions team can help. Often the savings from improving a customer’s supply chain can be enough to make the total cost of manufacturing less than an overseas solution. These savings include having less money tied up in inventory, speeding up time to market, reducing obsolete and excess inventory and guaranteeing supply and therefore improving the efficiency of their manufacturing facility.

Future Electronics can bring value to a customer beyond delivering parts, by fundamentally improving a customer’s business.

Best Home Care Announces Same-Day Paychecks For Employees and Personal Care Assistants

Best Home Care, a Twin Cities home health care agency, has begun providing employees with same-day paychecks. This announcement comes after the passing of new laws requiring Minnesota home care agencies to provide overtime payment.

Minneapolis, MN, USA (November 23, 2015) — Best Home Care, a Minneapolis home care agency, is now offering same-day paychecks to their entire staff of home care professionals and personal care assistants. This news comes after the passing of a law in the State of Minnesota that requires Minnesota home care agencies to compensate their PCAs for every hour of overtime worked. The new bill signals a momentous shift in home care administration practices and Best Home Care is proud to be a leader in this movement.

By offering same-day paychecks, Best Home Care seeks to provide an efficient solution to a common need among home care professionals and family caregivers. Using Best Home Care’s exclusive Homecare Timesheet App, personal care assistants are able to request payments when they need them instead of waiting until the end of a pay period. The Minnesota PCA agency also allows their employees to submit timesheets via fax, email, and electronic PDF while offering timesheet reminders via telephone or email.

“Our goal is to make it as easy as possible for our personal care assistants to be compensated for the home health care services they provide,” said Andre Best, Owner of Best Home Care. “Often times, PCAs will have difficulty submitting their timesheets on time or have a small mistake on their timesheet. Instead of waiting another two weeks to be paid, we seek to provide a way for our home care professionals to receive their money when they need it.”

On October 13th, the new home care overtime laws went into effect throughout Minnesota. This law greatly benefits personal care attendants working for a home care agency that provides overtime pay as they are now compensated for their work. However, a good number of Minnesota PCA agencies do not allow for overtime pay and as a result, these agencies were forced to cut employee’s hours to comply with the new state requirements. Despite these recent legislative changes within the home health care industry, Best Home Care has not cut any hours or pay rates for their personal care assistants; staying true to a promise that owner Andre Best made to employees.

About Best Home Care
Best Home Care is a top in-home health care agency providing support for personal care assistants (PCA) and family caregivers in Minnesota. Founded in 2005 by Andre Best, an attorney and former union president, the company offers administrative assistance and educational resources for those providing home care for seniors and individuals with various disabilities and diseases. Best Home Care is a PCPO, PCA Choice, and Waivered Service Provider.

Bryn Mawr Brewing is Now Utepils Brewing®

Brewery Opens Spring of 2016 in Bryn Mawr Neighborhood.

Minneapolis, MN, USA (November 22, 2015) — Contact: Noah Rouen | 612-419-6909

Fresh off completing a successful equity raise of $1,225,000, Bryn Mawr Brewing announced it is changing its name to Utepils Brewing®, the name of the holding company. The word “utepils” is Norwegian for the first beer enjoyed outdoors in the sunshine after a long, dark winter. The word “ute” means outside and “pils” means beer. The “utepils moment” is widely-anticipated and celebrated every Spring by Norwegian beer drinkers.

In announcing the change to investors, founder Dan Justesen said, “Two years ago, when we embarked on a journey to build a great European-style craft brewery, we christened ourselves Utepils Brewing®. Then, after finding the perfect site to build our brewery near the Bryn Mawr neighborhood, we decided to adopt the Bryn Mawr name.”

However, a funny thing happened on the way to the trademark office. After researching the trademark for Bryn Mawr Brewing, Justesen and the ownership group discovered a winery of the same name in Oregon. Meanwhile, investors, fans and friends continued to use the Utepils name and hashtag in social media posts – often sporting the Utepils name from the back of t-shirts in Facebook, Twitter and Instagram posts.

Justesen added, “Utepils quickly became the fan favorite on social media for the brewery. There is nothing more social than enjoying a great beer with friends — so we are following our fans’ lead and building Utepils as our core brand.”

Utepils Brewing® is steeped in the traditions of European brew masters, but will soon be available close to home in Minneapolis, with plans to distribute regionally and nationally. Construction is now underway for the full-production brewery and taproom being built at the site of the former Glenwood Bottling plant. Utepils Brewing® is set to open in early 2016 and will specialize in classic European beer styles and also offer select, special edition seasonal brews.

Special Holiday Offer for VIPER MEMBEERSHIPS®

Just in time for the gift-giving season and to celebrate the new brand, Utepils Brewing® is offering holiday cheer MEMBEERSHIPS® with free beer for 99 years. The exclusive VIPER Program “Very Important Patron, Enthusiast and Recruiter” gives patrons access to the coolest (and only transferable) beer club in town.

Single MEMBEERSHIPs® are $1000, but Utepils Brewing® has a special holiday offer for the first 100 Couple MEMBEERSHIPS ® of $1848 per couple, reduced from $1900. 1848 is the founding date of the German brewery that was the original home of the signature copper kettle that will be displayed in our taproom.

Offer is limited to first 100 couple MEMBEERSHIPS® and expires December 23, 2015. To reserve your VIPER, email MEMBEERSHIP@utepilsbrewing.com.

For more information, visit http://www.utepilsbrewing.com. For media interviews, contact: Dan Justesen | 612-721-5131.
