HCAC Celebrates 10 Years in the Carolinas

For the last 10 years, the Hispanic Contractors Association of the Carolinas (HCAC) has focused on the development of the construction business. The HCAC celebrated a significant milestone of its 10th anniversary.

“This is a remarkable moment for HCAC and its constituents,” said Renee Jones, President of the Board and fellow member of the organization. “This year, we are recognizing the support of all members and stakeholders who gave HCAC the chance to prove how beneficial it was for the minority business community of the Carolinas and for the construction industry as a whole.”

During 2017 the HCAC offers a range of programs, from training and education to networking and empowering opportunities. The HCAC was established to provide the necessary resources to ensure continuous improvement of its members, promoting long-term success of Hispanic construction companies in the Carolinas. To achieve its objectives, HCAC provides members with valuable services in the areas of education, consulting, corporate and advocacy. HCAC’s membership includes general contractors, subcontractors, construction workers, vendors and equipment suppliers, and corporations related to this industry

The 10 year anniversary will also bring an important change to HCAC’s signature event, the Construction Conference. This year only, Jones is turning the traditional conference into a celebration and awards gala.  The twist on this event is strategic in nature and comes at a time when minority contractors and the construction community are ready to join forces to celebrate diversity and recognize the best in the industry. The gala, planned for July 21 in Raleigh, provides founding sponsors and members the opportunity to celebrate accomplishments and engage newcomers who want to be a part of this memorable evening.

HCAC key supporters include: Builders Mutual Insurance Company, CertainTeed Roofing, Blue Cross and Blue Shields of NC, National Gypsum, PSNC Energy, Sherwin Williams, NC 811, Skanska, JE Dunn, Red Roosters Contractors, Starlight Painting Contractors, Turner Construction and BB&T.
