Delaware Nation Industries & Investments are owned by the Delaware Nation
The Aboriginal name is Lenape, or Lenni-Lenape, also known as the Grandfathers. The oldest nation in North America and the first Indigenous Nation to sign a treaty with the United States.
Tamanend (“the Affable” c. 1628 – c. 1698), was the Chief of Chiefs and Chief of the Turtle Clan of the Lenni-Lenape nation in the Delaware Valley at the time that Philadelphia was established, and was the one who signed the founding peace treaty with William Penn.
He became known as the Patron Saint of America, representing peace and amity, and became an icon for peaceful political negotiation.
Our SHINES values stem from Chief Tamanend’s virtues of wisdom, charity, affability, and hospitality.
