Lesro’s background
Adam and Alice Leshem arrived in America in 1968 with $20 and a burning desire to gain additional education in a new land. While studying for an engineering degree, Adam designed and hand-built a unique folding, metal-frame drafting table that, when not in use, could be stored away in their small apartment in a closet or under a bed.
By 1973, Adam launched a small business to manufacture and sell his patented drafting table, and he has always maintained his passion for sharing this innovative design with others. But he is an entrepreneur as well as an engineer, and as his family grew Adam saw an opportunity to make his business grow, as well. In the autumn of 1986, Adam and his oldest son, Jerry, made their first chair — and Lesro was now in the seating business, a much larger market segment to add to the drafting table business
Today, Lesro Industries, Inc., is a family-owned manufacturer of reception seating and tables, and built on the principles of trustworthiness and responsiveness to the customers’ needs.
Adam remains involved with the business, along with two of his three sons, Jerry and Ed, who have assumed key leadership positions in the company. About 100 “extended” members of the Lesro family come to work each day to play their important roles as part of the team.
Lesro’s products are carefully built with components produced in Connecticut and sourced worldwide, a hybrid manufacturing model. Final production is maintained in the company’s Bloomfield, CT, headquarters.
