Pella Corporation
 PROFILE
Window and door maker Pella got out of a jamb by offering its products through retailers. Originally Pella focused on upscale homeowners, builders, and designers, marketing its products through a network of distribution centers and upscale Pella Window Stores retail outlets. The company expanded its market, allowing do-it-yourselfers to buy its ProLine windows and doors through building supply stores. Its products include sliding French and contemporary doors and awning, clad casement, and bay windows. Pella was founded in 1925 as Rolscreen Company (after its first product -- a roll-up window screen). The descendants of founder Pete Kuyper own the company.
