The University of Cincinnati celebrates this week's Bearcat Friday winner.
The University of Cincinnati Athletic Department developed a way for businesses and campus offices around the country to join in on the fun and show their pride for the University. Bearcats Fridays is scheduled to run throughout the year.
This week's BEARCAT FRIDAY WINNER IS DAYTON SUPPLY AND TOOL! The BEARCAT mascot visited DST today to deliver UC items to employees wearing red and black.
"We pride ourselves on dedicated customer service. We are very excited to be selected as the winner of Bearcat Friday. We have four employees who are UC alumni and three students. Great things are happening at UC and we are glad to be a part of the excitement. We would like to wish the Bearcats Football team good luck in New Orleans at the Sugar Bowl," said Sandy Holt, Cincinnati's Warehouse Manger.
Dayton Supply & Tool is a family owned business founded in 1936 in Dayton, Ohio. DST is a distributor of cutting tools and industrial supplies to the manufacturing industry. The Cincinnati branch located in the Blue Ash area serves Southwest Ohio, Northern Kentucky and Indiana.
