A Simple Idea...
Build an association of qualified general contractors with similar retail and restaurant project experience, capabilities and services. Market the association to regional and national concepts.We have the size; we have the strength. We have local expertise and national reach.
The NACC Story
The National Association of Commercial Contractors, headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri was incorporated as a cooperative in August of 2009. Barry Spiegelglass, NACC’s Founder and Executive Director, realized the need for a national organization to represent, promote and market both the association and its individual general contractor members to the owners, developers and construction departments of regional and national, retail and restaurant concepts.Building on the idea of networking a "collective strength in numbers” is an integral part of the association's activities, and one of the most valuable benefits of membership.
Who's the Power Behind the NACC Today?
The short answer -- people in the retail and restaurant general contracting industry are the driving force behind the organization. The board of directors monitors policy and goals. A management company is responsible for day-to-day association operations and activities. The activities of both groups are overseen by Barry Spiegelglass, Executive Director, together with Margo Colestock, Director of Business Development, and staff in the St. Louis office.NACC Goals
