Richard Herrington and Stephen Sallah.
LBM Advantage reached record attendance at its more recent Annual Buying Show & Shareholders Meeting.
Held last month in Orlando, Florida, hit its highest member attendance with 800 of their 1400 locations represented, the LMB cooperative reported.
During the event, Chairman Richard Herrington of Ed Herrington, Inc. and Vice-Chairman Chris O’Neill of Kellogg Supply Company presented LBM Advantage President and CEO Stephen Sallah with a plaque to commemorate his service to the cooperative.
Sallah plans to retire this summer after 16 years with the organization. Under Sallah’s leadership, LBM Advantage has grown from 425 members to 1400, through two mergers and southern, southwestern, and western expansion.
The event kicked off with three educational sessions that provided insight into new 2024 building product codes, successfully participating in the multi-family housing market, and taking control of digital marketing assets.
