(Denver, Colo.) – February 1, 2021 – Tuff Shed, Inc., America’s leading supplier of storage buildings and garages will be hosting a Grand Re-Opening event on Wednesday and Thursday, February 3-4, 2021 at their sales and design center located in Bessemer, Ala.
The Denver-based company has been a bright spot in the U.S. retail sales and manufacturing sectors and is now looking to bring on more employees and installers to be part of its workforce at the Bessemer location and other production facilities across the country. Tuff Shed has serviced Alabama customers since 2004 via its production facilities located throughout the Southeastern U.S.
Tuff Shed’s Bessemer facility is located at 3649 Pine Lane SE, just north of 459 near Parkwood Road. Tuff Shed recently renewed its lease on this 15,000 square foot facility and has done various tenant improvements including landscaping and re-grading the parking lot. The two-day event will showcase the company’s 2021 building models, special savings, prizes and a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Bessemer Chamber of Commerce at Noon on February 3rd.
Event organizers are requesting RSVPs for the event so it can accommodate customers and installers safely. Customers or job seekers can call 205-536-9430 for more information or to RSVP.
With unprecedented consumer demand, Tuff Shed recorded the best single sales and revenue year in its 40 year history during 2020. Like most businesses last March and April, Tuff Shed experienced business challenges that included closures and installation challenges. But consumer and institutional demand for storage buildings and garages fueled remarkable growth in the second half of last year.
“We’re looking for people with great attitudes who can be great coworkers for our amazing team,” says Mike Casey, Tuff Shed Chief Operating Officer. “Construction and manufacturing experience is always a plus, but we’re willing to train people with no experience who are looking for a new and stable career. In most roles we are even paying a hiring and retention bonus as well.”
The twist on virtual hiring events is just the latest example of how Tuff Shed has pivoted in response to the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. The company implemented additional measures to keep its employees, contractors and customers safe, such as shifting to virtual appointments and site checks, doing extra cleaning and distancing at its factories, and ensuring that its installers also followed procedures around using disinfectant, wearing masks, and never entering customers’ homes.
“The safety of our employees, community, and customers is our top concern,” says Tuff Shed Founder and President Tom Saurey. “We responded to this crisis early and have continued to practice social distancing rules, require mask use, and are working on keeping all of our facilities cleaner than ever.”
Tuff Shed also responded to the call for unique building uses which emerged during the COVID-19 crisis. Tuff Shed provided buildings to residential homeowners for buildings to be used as home office space, home schooling space, expanded space for additional family members living at home, and for storage of household goods. Additionally, Tuff Shed installed structures to be used as part of COVID-19 testing at health care facilities across several states. Tuff Shed also continued to work with municipalities across the country to provide buildings that were then modified by the customer to serve as shelters for people experiencing homelessness.
Tuff Shed’s company footprint includes 52 production facilities across the country, and a total of 150 brick-and-mortar retail storefronts and cross docks. Tuff Shed also is a Service and Install partner for The Home Depot, offering an exclusive line of building products at all of the home improvement retailer’s stores in the lower 48 United States.
TUFF SHED products include wooden storage sheds and garages. The company works with its customers to design and accessorize buildings, then pre-fabricates key building components at its manufacturing facilities so it can deliver and install buildings on the customer site. Over its 40 years Tuff Shed has designed, fabricated and installed more than 1.3 million buildings across the country.
