ADCO Hearing Products
|
ADCO Hearing Products is the one-stop-shop for everything hearing related. We are proud to offer a wide selection of products to help you and your loved ones enjoy the sounds of life.
In 2014 the company was sold to the current owners, Abby Armijo and Jim Guiffre, maintaining the family-owned status for this amazing small business. As an Army veteran, Abby has a strong connection to the many VA clinics, hospitals, and facilities that the company serves, with a great appreciation for the service that these facilities provide and the Veterans they support. Her experience in operations and marketing provides an excellent foundation for ADCO to build on its tradition of offering its clients useful, liberating products. Combined with Jim’s vast knowledge in accounting, finance, and operations, this new ownership has set the stage for a new chapter in ADCO’s history as the company experiences record growth and positive reinforcement from our valued customers. As a company, ADCO is dedicated to the continued support of the Veterans Affairs facilities and all of the Veterans who rely on their services. Additionally, as the number of Audiologists, medical professionals, hearing aid dispensers and hearing instrument specialists continues to increase, we are constantly working towards increasing our already vast selection of clinical supplies, amplified products, and communications solutions to better serve our customers. As the company continues to evolve, our focus is now on providing an even greater level of service to our customers along with a larger product selection in order to meet the needs of our professional and retail customers alike.
