CHARLOTTE, N.C., May 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Carolina
Wholesale Group, parent company of Carolina Wholesale and Arlington
Industries, announced they have partnered with 3D Systems (NYSE:

Carolina Wholesale and Arlington Industries are now national
distributors of the top-selling 3D Systems Cube and CubePro
hardware and supplies to their wide network of office products
dealers throughout the United
States.
"Carolina Wholesale Group has a broad network of office products
and imaging resellers that provide a unique fit for 3D Systems
products in their portfolio of offerings," states Larry Huneycutt, President of Carolina Wholesale
Group. "We recognize the future is now with 3D printing and
believe the rapid innovation of this technology will demand a
strong need for a distribution partner such as Arlington and
Carolina Wholesale." CWG plans to market and support the 3D
