Sean Whalen talks about Avendra Clubs supporting the Ohio Golf Course Owners Association

In this interview, Mike Hendrix of smbGOLF sits down with Sean Whalen from Avendra Clubs to discuss their supporting sponsorship of the 2026 Ohio Golf Course Owners Association (OGCOA) Annual Conference. Learn how Avendra Clubs leverages over $20.5 billion in global purchasing power to help independent golf courses reduce operating costs without paying any membership fees. Sean explains the unique "Ohio Beta Test," which extends these professional procurement services beyond private clubs to public and daily-fee facilities across the state for the first time. Key highlights from the video include: Massive Scale: How independent clubs can access the same buying power as major management companies like Arcis and Invited. Industry-Leading Brands: Accessing pre-negotiated contracts with suppliers you already use, such as Toro, John Deere, EZ-GO, Rain Bird, and Gordon Food Service. The Audit Team: How Avendra’s internal team monitors invoices in the background to identify price gaps and ensure credits are sent back to your facility. Account Management: Utilizing a dedicated consultant as a free extension of your purchasing department for FF&E quotes and conflict resolution. Conference Perks: Why member attendance at the March 3rd conference at Westbrook Country Club is free specifically because of this sponsorship support. Join us on March 3, 2026, at Westbrook Country Club in Mansfield, Ohio, to meet Sean and his team face-to-face.
