A major strength was the ability to keep the expertise within the business, a trend which endures to this day and evidenced by the long length of service by many of the employees. Both companies are synonymous with providing excellent service, unsurpassed customer care, quality products and last, but not least, the implementation of sound operating structures. We have implemented and integrated all of the above strengths into the David Matthews Company.
