Celebrating 100 years of the trusted adleta name in business
HOW DOES ADLETA CELEBRATE?
BY GRATEFULLY GIVING BACK…
…In 2020, Dianne and Jack Adleta have been celebrating The Adleta Corporation’s 100-year milestone by investing in the next generation.
First, they supported the mission of Basketball Hall of Fame Star, Nancy Lieberman, and Jorge Baldor, founder of After8ToEducate for homeless high school students, to sponsor a Nancy Lieberman Charities Dream Court on the repurposed campus of a former school, now the Fannie C. Harris Youth Center in East Dallas.
Then, they sponsored 11 educational videos for students, teachers and everyone to explore the Dallas Arboretum’s fascinating world of flowers, butterflies, and waterfalls in the 11 galleries of interactive exhibits in the Rory Meyers Children’s Adventure Garden.
Here are some special moments as a result of these sponsorships:
“It means the world to us to support these exceptional initiatives: After8ToEducate providing homeless high school students a safe, cheerful, place to be, to study, and play basketball on the new Nancy Lieberman Charities Dream Court; and educational videos introducing the fun of learning nature’s lessons in science, art, math, and architecture at the Dallas Arboretum.”
LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
This year, as The Adleta Corporation celebrates our 100th Anniversary, and our 50th year as the leading hard-surface flooring distributor, we are deeply grateful.
First, we thank our loyal customers, with whom we have been fortunate to forge strong, trusted relationships. It is a true pleasure to do business with you.
We greatly appreciate our suppliers. From the day we partnered with Armstrong, we made the decision to represent only the best suppliers who are leaders in their product categories. You are, indeed, the best.
And, of course, we appreciate our Adleta team of professionals who deliver excellence to all of you.
With the continued commitment and leadership principles of our founding family, Jack and Dianne Adleta set the bar for excellence in customer care and set the positive tone of our culture by treating employees as family. When you look at the tenure of our team – 63% of our employees have been with us more than 10 years – you can see their philosophy is working.
Over the years, we have built our business upon these three core values:
