• Capitol Heights Branch hosts the DC Commercial Construction Community

    by Moneca Looui | Oct 22, 2018

    Convoy’s newest branch held an open house on October 18th for the commercial construction community, celebrating a successful first summer season in the DC Beltway. Contractors, architects, suppliers of building envelope products, our partners from the BEST Group, and a wide range of other construction industry professionals spent a sunny afternoon enjoying the festivities. The event featured live music from the Gray Brothers Band, a BBQ, a tabletop tradeshow, giveaways, prizes from our generous supply partners, and product demos by SOPREMA, Chemlink, Aquafin, Rockwool, and Hunter Panels.
