Description
On this episode of the Build Podcast, Matt is joined by Brian Ciciora, CEO and Founder, Truewerk Workwear, to talk about the story of the American workman and why what you wear on the job matters. Think about it—everything you communicate, what you wear, and how you present yourself is a big deal for your business, so this episode will dive into innovations that protect the American worker, including better, more durable fabrics that look good (and don’t have to be ironed out of the wash). Listen in to learn more about Brian’s background in construction, and discover the important and significance of the role the American builder plays in advancing society.

Episode 7: Supply Chain and Building Supplies: On today’s podcast I’m joined by special guest Jeff Rettig, VP of Supply Chain at Builders First Source to talk about the crazy spike in the commodities market especially surrounding lumber products. Lumber prices have sky rocketed recently by almost 4 times compared to what they were this time last year and with demand increasing and supplies tightening due to varying factors, it’s having a huge impact across the industry. For the average sized house build, the lumber alone is costing around $26,000 to $30,000 more than normal and lead times have been gradually increasing with many having to wait as long as 6 months. by The Build Show Podcast
