On the eve of her ninetieth birthday, Melba Mebane, a person who symbolizes commitment and determination, has chosen to end a long career in the retail sector. For more than seventy years, she has been an iconic face at Dillard’s in Tyler, Texas.
Imagine that Melba started this great adventure in 1956, at the age of 17, climbing the steps to success with unwavering will.
She started modestly as a lifter before shining in the cosmetics department, where her cordial smile and her business know-how won over her colleagues and consumers.
James Saenz, manager of the Dillard’s store in Tyler, is full of praise for Ms. Melba. According to him, she was much more than a model employee: she was a great inspiration and advisor to all those who crossed the threshold of her store.
It represents the foundations of customer service, meeting requirements and achieving an unforgettable business in the luxury retail sector.
Ms. Melba’s success is not only based on her professional skills, but also on her ability to build friendships. Her welcoming and warm nature allowed her to build friendly relationships with her colleagues and clients.
She appreciated each connection established over the years, finding true satisfaction in the interpersonal exchanges within her workplace.
Her retirement ceremony was an opportunity for her colleagues and managers to salute the decades of exceptional service she has provided. She was awarded the “Beyond Excellence” award, which reflects her dedication and remarkable contribution to the company.
