NRMCA Senior Vice President, Promotion, Amy Miller spoke this weekend at The Carolinas Ready Mixed Concrete Association’s summer convention, offering an update on initiatives within the NRMCA promotion group. "The Design Assistance Program continues to offer opportunities for our members to pursue work and our Boot Camp courses as well," she said. "Before I left the convention, one producer member had already contacted me to put together a Boot Camp class for that company."

Miller also spoke on the aggressiveness of the soft wood lumber industry and the market share that has been taken from the concrete industry. "North Carolina is one of the states the soft wood lumber industry cited as having the most success in converting commercial/multi-family projects, and I felt it was imperative for our partners in this marketplace to be aware of not only the attack on their business, but the potential efforts of NRMCA to combat it," Miller added.
