Meet Trey Raney, Pella of DFW's President

Growing up, Trey Raney enjoyed a blessed childhood. A product of a tight family and a small town of 3,500 people outside of Wichita, Kansas, Trey has always carried with him a work ethic and drive to excel. He was gifted with athletic skills, playing quarterback for the high school football team in the fall and then transitioning to playing guard on the basketball team each spring.

He would go on to take his skills to the next level becoming a two-sport and multiple position athlete at Grinnell College in Iowa, where he earned all-conference honors in football. On the basketball court, he had success as well. He was the guard on a run-and-gun, three-point shot heavy offense. The team was electric, averaging 130 points a game during one season (yes, 130!) Quick trivia: Grinnell was the first D-3 school ever to have a game broadcast live on ESPN and one of the first teams ever to win a game shooting only three-pointers.

“Athletics and competing with and for my teammates taught me a lot,” said Trey....

“If you build it, they will come.”

That’s the famous line from the 1989 Oscar-nominated film, Field of Dreams – a movie about a farmer in Iowa who built a baseball diamond in the middle of a cornfield because he had a vision. For Pella of DFW/West Texas, their own field of dreams lies in Fort Worth and soon Dallas, with their new Experience Centers.

In July the Fort Worth 5,000 square-foot Experience Center had its Grand Opening. A combination of showroom, event center, and builder community space is located close to TCU and the Botanical Gardens, it is a window and door experience that showcases how Pella windows and doors look in an installation – giving builders and homeowners a “real” feel for the products. But there is more…the Center serves as a meeting space with a conference room for local builders, and industry associations. And the Center offers three private meeting rooms, so builders and architects can reserve private space to host clients to go over home projects. Pella of DFW/West Texas also plans to feature “how to” seminars and...
