Alexandria Industries today was named as Premier Supply Partner by Pella Corporation, a leading manufacturer and designer of windows, doors, and between-the-glass blinds and shades. The award recognizes Alexandria Industries for its excellence in lean manufacturing, product cost and quality, on-time delivery and customer service.

We look forward to our long-term partnership, while continuing to serve the company well.”
