What employees are saying

I love the people I work with here at AD. I am lucky in my role that I get to interact with lots of people across the company in many different departments and I truly think we have a great team. I found out during the pandemic while working from home that when you take away the stressful parts of working, sitting in a cubicle, commuting and just focus on doing your job in a comfortable environment that I really liked my job and the actual work I do. I think what we do here at AD is important.

The culture is very supportive and encouraging.

I work with highly-motivated associates and the Company has a strong mission.

Its flexible, comfortable, and allows for creativity.

we make an impact on the long term viability of independent family businesses

Everyone here makes me feel welcomed and appreciated. I have never worked for a company where I have experienced the amount of kindness I do here at AD.

I have learned a ton, I continue to learn every day and I feel that I make a genuine contribution to our organization on a daily basis.

Each day is something different. I have a wide range of responsibilities which allows me to continue to learn new things and expand my skillsets.

I am motivated everyday. I have the opportunity to learn and make a difference. AD is part of my family!

I get to work with amazing people not only at the office but we also get to help Independent distributors compete on the same level as the multi nationals in the marketplace
