We take you inside Jet-A-Way, a recycling company as well as a transportation company for construction and demolition waste, commercial waste, and recycled paper. Darlene and her husband have been recognized by their community and by the nation for their achievements.
With over $10 million in sales and 50 employees, today Darlene Jeter is focusing on fast-growth; she plans to double in size. In operation since 1969, she has endured enormous setbacks -- the death of her husband who was also her business partner -- and major declines in the construction business in Boston.
It is a dusty, tough industry. There is a lot of heavy metal -- trucks, tractors, and front-end loaders.
Darlene not only survives, she thrives with grace and dignity.
Darlene Jeter has tenacity. No moaning, blubbering, sniveling, whimpering or whining; she gets the job done and then gives back to her community.
