Truserv has ended the third quarter of 2003 with revenue down to US $ 478.8 mio (€ 406.3 mio). This means that the globally operating member-owned wholesale hardware cooperative, which has its headquarters in Chicago, has remained 4.2 per cent below the figure recorded for the same period last year. A comparison of the year-to-date revenue reveals a drop of approximately six per cent to US $ 1.5 bn (€ 1.3 bn).
