OUR STORY
In 1975, Bobby Terrell founded Terrell Enterprises, Inc. with a simple idea to provide schools with quality furniture and fixtures along with a full service delivery and installation solution. He began with only two product lines: Sico mobile cafeteria tables and Charles W. Rice window shades. Bobby, and often times his son, would spend many days (and nights) delivering tables, installing stools and hanging window shades while his wife, Mary Lou Terrell, managed “the books” from the small office of a pizza parlor they ran in Greenville, AL.
As a family, they began to grow the company through hard work, uncompromising product quality and unmatched personal service. Bobby began to add additional sales staff, while Mary Lou scheduled deliveries and installations for the growing in-house installation team. Over four decades later, Bobby has since retired, and his son, Al Brannon, has taken control of the family business with the same dedication to product quality and customer service.
Today, we continue to expand our product lines to meet the needs of our customers, and supply products and services that complement the ongoing advancements in education. We research innovative products and strategically partner with industry leading manufacturers to curate a flexible yet comprehensive line of products for virtually any educational environment including: administrative offices, art rooms, auditoriums, cafeterias, classrooms, common areas, early learning spaces, faculty areas, gymnasiums and locker rooms, media centers, outdoor spaces, performing arts/music rooms, science labs, special needs rooms, technology labs and vocational training rooms. We continue to outfit schools with window shades and window blinds and furnish flooring solutions such as educational rugs, floor mats and modular gym flooring. We also supply educational materials and learning resources. Our unofficial motto is, “If it goes in a school, you can probably get it from us.”
Since our humble beginnings, many things have changed, but one thing that has not is our commitment to a personalized customer experience. It’s this dedication and focus on the educational facilities around our state that has allowed us to uniquely serve our customers when, where and how they need us no matter how big a project or small and unique an order. We have a proven history of reliable service and experience that our customers have come to depend on to conveniently streamline their purchasing process from concept to completion. Our turn-key solution includes experienced consultation for product applications, state contract pricing, space planning and design, logistic and project management, warehousing capabilities, and flexible scheduling and reliable service from our in-house delivery, installation and repair team.
Terrell Enterprises has been blessed with amazing customers, employees, and partners throughout the years, and we are truly thankful for each and every person and opportunity that has made this company into what it is. We will continue to work hard for our customers in an effort to help them enhance their educational environments through products that engage students, enable teachers and endure the demands of learning facilities.
