In January, over 1,000 Builders FirstSource team members, 1,600 customers and 750 suppliers gathered in Las Vegas for the BFS 2023 National Event. The four-day event established itself as an industry-leading tradeshow, complete with expert-led education sessions, next-level exhibits, and world-class entertainment.
A performance by comedian Jim Gaffigan and a motivational talk from Hall of Fame basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski were certainly fun and memorable, but the true highlights of the event were the opportunities to engage with our customers and suppliers, as well as designers, architects, and developers. Additionally, we reinforced our commitment to customer service as well as provided an opportunity for our team to reconnect with each other, many of whom had not seen one another since 2019, while also meeting colleagues in-person for the first time.

INTRODUCING DIGITAL TOOLS
Crowds were lined up to meet with BFS digital sales specialists and members of our Paradigm team to see a demo of our Digital Tools and understand how our technology can help their business. Check out the video used to debut our suite of Digital Tools as part of our Take Building from Now to Next campaign.
THE BUILDERS FIRSTSOURCE HOUSE
What better way to show off BFS’ value-add solutions, including trusses, panels, millwork and READY-FRAME®, than to build a 2,000 SF house on the trade show floor? Using a modified floor plan from our Home Plan Library, our team of talented framers built it in less than two days.
Not only were people able to tour the house, but with a quick scan of a QR code, they could access hundreds of vendor products included in our Home Configure technology. Using their smart phones, they could experience photorealistic interior and exterior 3D visualizations of the finished house and customize them in real time.
