More Texas expansion for Beacon

Beacon has opened its latest greenfield location in Lubbock, Texas. 

The roofing and building materials distributor said the location allows it to service both residential and non-residential customers in the Lubbock market covering Crosby, Lubbock, and Lynn counties.

Last month, Beacon announced the opening of new locations in College Station and Sherman, Texas. 

The Lubbock branch is stocked with leading brands of roofing and complementary products, including Beacon’s own TRI-BUILT brand, the company said. Contractors in these markets will have immediate access to Beacon PRO+, our digital platform that will allow them to manage their business online.

“I am confident that the Beacon customer experience will be appreciated by contractors in Lubbock. Our team of building materials experts will help customers grow their businesses by saving time and operating more efficiently,” said Peter Lippert, Beacon’s regional vice president - Texas. “We are also proud to join the community by participating in the Chamber of Commerce and continuing our commitment to Toys for Tots.”

“This branch opening in the vibrant Texas market continues to demonstrate our commitment to making ‘Ambition 2025’ investments to drive above-market growth and delight our customers with operational excellence,” said Julian Francis, president and CEO of Beacon. “We are on track to open approximately 15 locations this year.”

 Based in Herndon, Va., Beacon operates over 450 branches throughout all 50 states in the U.S. and 6 provinces in Canada. Beacon also serves an extensive base of over 80,000 customers.
