HERNDON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. (Nasdaq: BECN) ("Beacon") announced today
that it has opened a new branch in the Seaport District of Boston,
Massachusetts. This new branch raises the total of Beacon's new branch
openings since January 1, 2015 to six, joining Birmingham, AL;
Charlotte, NC; Arvada, CO, Ocala, FL, and Oxnard, CA. Beacon has opened
32 new branches in 19 states and one Canadian province in the last 21
months and now operates 274 branches throughout the United States and
Canada. Beacon has added 208 branches through greenfield openings and
acquisitions since its IPO in 2004.
Paul Isabella, Beacon's CEO and President, emphasized the importance of
greenfield openings to Beacon's overall growth strategy and stated, "we
are very pleased to open our new branch in the vibrant, new South Boston
Seaport District. Beacon has served customers in the Boston area since
1928 and our new South Boston branch will enable us to more efficiently
serve our customers both in and around Boston. With the opening of this
new branch in the same week as the announcement of our transformative
acquisition of Roofing Supply Group ("RSG"), Beacon continues to show
the ability to grow both through acquisitions and greenfields, and I
look for both of these strategic growth trends to continue in the
future."
