Mandala Family, 1969
Celebrating 50 Years!
In 1969, Anthony Mandala saw a growing need for supplying institutional grade cleaning products to schools, hospitals and nursing homes. He started ALCO from the ground up in the Mandala family basement, and today we have expanded Mandala Brand Products to two locations. Our home base resides in a 35,000 square foot manufacturing facility in downtown Akron, OH with a second 25,000 square foot location in Canton, OH.
We are proud to say that after over 54 years we continue to be a family-run business alongside our dedicated and world-class associates. We appreciate your patronage and thank our customers who have been with us on this journey.
