IRE 2022 Session Preview: How to Leverage your Distributor as a Partner for Success in Today’s Environment
The COVID-19 pandemic and lack of raw material availability led to unprecedented supply shortages for roofing contractors across the continent, regardless of whether they serve residential or commercial markets. For many roofers, scarce materials led to project delays, cost overruns, layoffs and a lot of headaches that they had to overcome just to get through the year.
For those that had a trusted relationship with long-standing suppliers, the situation proved challenging, but passable. Others had a different experience — where those partnerships were tested, in some cases to the breaking point. This session is for contractors who want to avoid that situation altogether, or may be looking back now and asking where it all went wrong. It could make all the difference in keeping business thriving in 2022 and beyond.
