Roofing Contractor’s Best of Success Conference recently wrapped up two power-packed days in Clearwater Beach, Fla. I’ve said before it’s my favorite event of the year, and it definitely did not disappoint next year.
It’s been a tough economy for a few years now, so when someone is hiring it makes big news. Jasper Contractors Inc. has made big news recently by opening offices in Phoenix and New Orleans and bringing hundreds of jobs to those markets.
The International Roofing Expo (IRE) is held once a year in conjunction with the annual convention of the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA). NRCA sponsors the IRE and Roofing Contractor is the official publication of the event, the largest in the roofing industry. This year’s IRE was held at the Las Vegas Convention Center in mid-February.
Craig Brightup, CEO of The Brightup Group, might
not know a lot about the roofs contractors are building, but he certainly knows
about the economy the contractors are facing.
