DaimlerChrysler Corp. says it will begin offering "preferred" new-vehicle pricing to employees of Chrysler Group suppliers, beginning in August 2003. The program, the DaimlerChrysler Affiliate Rewards Supplier Program, gives the U.S. employees of Chrysler Group suppliers and their subsidiaries the opportunity to purchase or lease Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge vehicles at one percent below factory invoice, says the company. "We recognize the key role our suppliers play in the Chrysler Group's success," said Thomas W. Sidlik, DaimlerChrysler Corp. executive vice president - Procurement and Supply and member of the Board of Management. "We also respect the pride they have in their contributions, and want to encourage an affinity for our products." The "preferred" pricing may be combined with most consumer incentives available at the time of sale for even greater savings. Eligible employees and their spouses may purchase or lease up to two vehicles per calendar year. "The timing of the DaimlerChrysler Affiliate Rewards Supplier Program is ideal," said Larry Whitefield, Affinity Programs manager. "Whether our supplier employees are looking for a Dodge Grand Caravan or Chrysler Pacifica for one last summer trip with the family, a Jeep Grand Cherokee before winter arrives, or a Dodge Ram pickup for everyday capability, they'll find great pricing on nearly every popular Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge vehicle." Supplier companies are required to complete an enrollment process which allows them to participate in the special Chrysler Group new vehicle purchase program.
