"Despite high interest rates impacting the housing market, Andersen continued to achieve remarkable growth in 2023. This success is a testament to the unwavering commitment, adaptability, and resilience of our employees. We take pride in acknowledging our employees for embodying our core values and going above and beyond to consistently exceed customer expectations," said Chris Galvin, Andersen Corporation president and chief executive officer.
