What our partners are saying...

Service, Partnership, Follow-up

I have had the pleasure of working with many agencies over the course of my 19 years with Bulbrite Industries, but few have surpassed the dedication and performance of Décor Lighting. Todd Bierowski is a visionary agency principal, who is equally adept at strategically growing his territory, all the while effortlessly managing people both internally and externally. Having agencies like Décor Lighting on my roster makes my job that much easier.
