What we do
We sit between the
mill and the mixer.
ADA is a manufacturer's representative. We work directly with the manufacturers of products to get you the best pricing and the fastest delivery possible. Speed to market is our forte.
You get a real person who knows your formula, your volumes and your timeline. Your supplier gets a rep who knows the plant floor. Everybody wins, nobody gets ghosted.
