ADLT operates a sales-led B2B go-to-market targeting specifiers, architects, councils, government entities, and commercial/industrial operators. Revenue is generated primarily from hardware sales of LED luminaires and accessories under distributed and proprietary brands, supplemented by professional services including free lighting design, technical support, project management, energy savings and financial/payback analysis, project financing, and lighting control system design and commissioning. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific, with FIS (Free Into Store) delivery terms above minimum order values and a dedicated e-commerce portal for account customers. Distribution is led by an experienced field sales team complemented by inside sales and a multi-brand manufacturer partnership model.
