How a job at ABC Supply gives you a chance to serve contractors and give back
We know that contractors have a lot of options when it comes to selecting a building materials distributor. That’s why, from day one, we’ve been an employee-first company. We believe that associates who feel valued and supported and are enthusiastic about their work will provide world-class service to our customers.
Having a job at ABC Supply means you’re a part of building our customers’ businesses, and you have opportunities to give back to your local community. Here are some reasons why our associates are so special.
1. They’re highly engaged
As a testament to our people, we’ve been honored for the 16th consecutive year with the Gallup Exceptional Workplace Award, which recognizes the top workplaces in the world. Gallup studied millions of employees around the globe to understand what sets great workplaces apart from the rest, and it comes down to engaged employees. Highly engaged employees like our associates at ABC Supply are committed to their work and customers, and their passion and enthusiasm often fuel our growth and innovation.
We’re also honored to have received Glassdoor’s Employee Choice Award twice for Best Places to Work. Every company hopes to be recognized as a great workplace, and we’re proud that our associates love working at ABC Supply. With hardworking, engaged associates, we can continue to be a supplier of choice for our valued customers.
2. They help contractors succeed
One of the ways we make sure our customers have the tools and information they need to stand out is by providing ongoing training to our associates and empowering them to actively listen to what contractors need to be successful.
Our associates continue to listen to customer feedback to find ways to improve the way we support them. While the industry has been dealing with supply chain issues, our associates have been proactively communicating with contractors and working with suppliers and nearby branches to find materials. We want to make doing business with us as easy as possible, and that includes being able to get the building products contractors need.
3. They give back to their communities
At ABC Supply, our Core Values guide our company culture. One of our Core Values is Give Back, and our associates take that to heart. With over 840 locations throughout the country, ABC Supply is part of many communities, and our associates look for ways to give back financially and through volunteering. Here are just a few ways they’ve done so recently:
- Associates at our East Orange, New Jersey, location helped unload semi trucks full of donations for a nearby church’s food drive. As families in the community struggled to make ends meet during COVID-19, the associates helped make the citywide food donation program run smoothly.
- In 2020, we made a multimillion-dollar commitments to the Make-A-Wish Foundation and Homes For Our Troops (HFOT) and our associates have enjoyed getting involved.
- Ahead of the Indianapolis 500 on May 29, 2022, we unveiled a partnership with AJ Foyt Racing to shine a national spotlight on HFOT. We gifted the design of our IndyCar and matched every donation to the organization up to $1 million as part of a 10-day fundraising effort. America rallied behind HFOT and donated over $1 million. Along with the match, we raised more than $2 million support Veterans.
ABC Supply has incredible associates who make a difference within our company, for our customers and in their local communities. It’s what makes ABC Supply one of the best places to work.
