AMVAL Today: Vincent Matteis, Aime Cedrone, Michelle Matteis, Anthony Matteis On September 20th, 1982, Vincent Matteis made the brave decision to begin a new company. His love and commitment to faith, family and flag inspired him to create AMVAL Associates. The name is an acronym for his 3 children and his loving wife (Aime, Michael, Vincent, Anthony, Lorraine) and also represents his philosophy of promoting AMerican VALue. AMVAL has survived recessions, countless changes in distribution and end user shifts. AMVAL continues to thrive, holding firm to always “doing the good stuff”, like kicking 10% back to charity. Vincent Matteis is seeing the fruits of his labor as he now has a true family business! His only daughter (Aime Cedrone) asked him for a job in 1997. With her fathers’ inherent love and understanding of people, she has been able to service her territory with professionalism, and has mastered the complexities of leadership by becoming AMVAL’s Sales Manager. In 2004, AMVAL added Michelle Matteis (Vinny’s daughter-in-law) and Tony Matteis (his son). Michelle has successfully grown her sales territory of Vermont and Northern New Hampshire, Maine & New York. She also runs the logistics side side of AMVAL from her office in Vermont. Tony Matteis has been dutifully covering Western Mass, Connecticut and New York. Tony has double duty, like the sisters, and is in charge of the graphics and web side of AMVAL (including flyer design and advertising services for their customers). Vincent is extremely proud and committed to his long term business partners. AMVAL will take that extra step needed to stay on top of the game and with the help of his daughters and son, Vinny will pursue the future with hope and gratitude.
