Pallet Services Inc.: A Story of Opportunity and Perseverance

Services Inc. exemplifies the power of opportunity and perseverance. Founded over 40 years ago by Jan and Ron Matre Sr. from the back of a pickup truck, the business began with Ron picking up pallets late at night to give his two oldest sons a chance to start their own venture.

Key Figures:

• Don Matre: CEO
• Ron Matre: Head of Sales

Together, they transformed that modest nighttime operation into a thriving company, later joined by their siblings, Tracy Matre-Waring and Tom Matre. What began as a family endeavor blossomed with the addition of many key employees - some from the early days and others brought on as the business expanded.

Pallet Services Inc. has since grown to be the largest supplier of grade A and B pallets in Western New York, employing over 100 individuals across two locations: Clarence, NY, and Rochester, NY.

Core Values:

• Emphasis on building and maintaining relationship
• A family-like atmosphere that fosters employee, customer, and supplier loyalty

By preserving the qualities that have driven their success over the last four decades, Pallet Services Inc. aims to maintain its position as the top pallet supplier in Western New York.

In addition to our operations in Western New York, we also serve Syracuse, NY, and Erie, PA.

With a strong focus on sustainability and innovation, the company has also embraced eco-friendly practices, ensuring that their operations have minimal environmental impact.

Pallet Services Inc. regularly collaborates with local communities, supporting various charitable endeavors and contributing to regional development. This engagement has strengthened their reputation as a company that cares deeply about the people and places they serve.

Looking to the future, Pallet Services Inc. plans to further expand its reach and continue exploring new markets while staying true to the foundational principles established by Jan and Ron Matre Sr. Their story serves as a testament to the impact of hard work, vision, and unwavering dedication—a beacon of inspiration for aspiring entrepreneurs and established businesses alike.
