Counter Sales - Raleigh, United States - D&L Parts Co

Description

Who we are: D&L Parts Company, formerly known as D&L Appliance Parts, was established in 1955. Our American, family-owned company was created for the everyday handyman in need of the right parts, but unwilling to pay big box stores prices. Over the last 65 years, we realized the contractor's emerging need for an all in one Parts, Tools, Appliances, and HVAC distributor. Our company took this as a challenge to create a store that fulfills everyone's needs while staying true to our original purpose. To accomplish this, we expanded our locations, inventory, and product lines.

Currently, we have 18 convenient locations across North and South Carolina. We distribute both wholesale and retail, repair/replacement parts, accessories, maintenance supplies, tools, and equipment for major Appliances, Refrigeration, Residential, Light Commercial, Heating, and Air Conditioning brands. Since the beginning, D&L has devoted to servicing all customers from the do-it-yourselfers (DIY) to servicers, and contractors. No matter the size job, we are there every step of the way.

We treat our employees, customers, and community like family.

Our Family Values:

F - Fast - the ability to get your part in a timely manner

A - Accuracy - providing accurate information to our customers and employees at all times.

M - Manufacturers - partnering with the biggest and best manufacturers to keep the stock our communities need.

I - Investment in our people and our customers.

L - Listening to our customers and responding in a timely manner allowing them to make the most profit and accomplish their job effectively.
