Evolution with purpose

Carroll Construction Supply navigates industry change through expansion, employee ownership, technology investment, and growth

Growth often shows where an industry is headed. At Carroll Construction Supply( Carroll), you can see this in the rise of data center construction, the growing demand for rebar fabrication, and the new technologies already reshaping how products move through the supply chain. Even after one of the most successful periods in its history, this employee-owned distributor keeps its eyes on what’ s next.

For Tom Verzani, Director of Purchasing, the challenge isn’ t just keeping products moving through Carroll’ s supply chain. He’ s always thinking about where demand, technology, and the industry itself are headed. Tom handles supplier relationships, inventory, procurement strategy, and product availability throughout Carroll’ s expanding operations. As projects get bigger and customers’ expectations climb, these responsibilities matter more than ever. That mindset fits a company built on adapting to new markets and new ways of working.“ One of the most important things I learned in college was this advice:‘ Read periodicals. Make sure that you’ re staying on top of what’ s changing in your industry. Whatever it is you want to do, you need to be staying on top of that.’”
