Customer Stories
"First Commonwealth... a true partner."
By: Ilana Diamond, CEO
Sima Products Corporation
Expanding a global technology company requires true partners that can be nimble and highly responsive. First Commonwealth is exactly that kind of partner for my international business.
Founded in 1973, Sima Products Corporation is celebrating 32 years as a leading innovator of consumer electronic accessories. Sima manufactures accessories in the categories of photography, video, home theater, power, and home safety. Today, nearly one hundred Sima products are sold in more than 20 countries worldwide. Sima Products is dedicated to developing innovative solutions that enhance everyday life, creating partnerships in the Pittsburgh area, and working with brands such as First Alert® to bring a variety of products to the marketplace.
When we had the opportunity for a $1 million plus order, we needed extra support and a fast decision to allow us to meet our customer's requirements. First Commonwealth jumped right in and got us the support we needed – fast. The ability to initiate international wires and stand-by letters of credit is extremely vital to our consumer electronic accessory company. First Commonwealth has enabled us to conduct business with suppliers and customers on a global basis.
Our relationship managers and staff at First Commonwealth are always a phone call or email away. They are quick to respond to our needs and often "over-deliver" by offering additional comments and suggestions. Our large retail customers' orders are seasonal, and revenue from other customers can also vary quite a bit due to timing of contracts. First Commonwealth has taken the time to understand this aspect of our business and works with us through the normal peaks and valleys.
