Builders and Manufacturers to Meet at Pre-Show Reception

Builder Partnerships will be hosting its Second Annual Networkinig Reception prior to the 2007 International Builders’ Show to give manufacturers and home builders the opportunity to explore mutually beneficial relationships.

Led by Charles Shinn Jr., of Shinn Consulting, and Glenn Singer, formerly of CetainTeed Corporation and now CEO of Builder Partnerships, the company has recruited nearly 40 builder members and more than 25 manufacturer associates in its first year.

Builder members represent some of the most successful privately held small to medium-sized builders in the nation, and include top performers who have won national and local awards for their successful management styles. They are considered spheres of influence within their communities, operating across the U.S. and Canada, with a high concentration in major markets, and they built more than 10,000 units last year.

The main focus of Builder Partnerships is opening up two-way communication between builders and manufacturers through a newsletter, focus groups, roundtable events and other educational programs that enable them to collaborate on new products and technologies, as well as model home design and selection centers.

Members of Builder Partnerships and more than 100 other builders and manufacturers have been invited to the networking reception, which will be held in Orlando on Feb. 6, 5:30-7:30 p.m. at The Rosen Plaza Hotel, Salon 7/8, 9700 International Drive.

To reserve a spot at the reception, send an e-mail to IBSinfo@builderpartnerships.com.

Builder Partnerships is a member of the National Council of the Housing Industry — The Supplier 100 of NAHB.
