Richard J. DeBacco, President Today, Garland's worldwide network of representatives are servicing customers around the world with the same vision, enterprise, and integrity demonstrated by J.B. Wise back in 1895. Individual salesmen remain the driving force of our success. Serving the customer with an unwavering commitment to quality and a single-minded responsiveness to individual requirements. The hardships of wars and economic depression drove many companies into oblivion. Garland was not among them.
Garland adds a product line of consumer house paints.
During the course of our history, The Garland Company, Inc. has had to reinvent itself again and again to meet the ever-changing challenges of national crises and economic downturns. Later, when World War II arrived, we shifted gears again, developing a reclamation system for spray paint that was used to camouflage military vehicles. By embracing change, we continued to prosper. There's a lot of creativity at Garland. We're very 'down the road' people, always anticipating, always a step ahead.
