Episode 3 - "Safety Consulting & Compliance Corp."

February 2019

I was happy to interview Greg Perricone of Safety Consulting & Compliance Corp. Greg talks about extensive OSHA safety training while in the United States Air Force, and how he successfully transferred his skills to the United States marketplace.  He's a well known LIBI member, he's got some interesting stories to tell, and he speaks highly of LIBI's efforts to improve Long Island. 

Greg can be contacted at his Hauppauge office: (631) 642-7350

"Interview with Keith McNamara"

Alside Supply Center

Builder-Associate Spotlight: Season 1, Episode 2

Happy New Year! I start off 2019 interviewing LIBI Council Secretary Keith McNamara. He is the Area Sales Manager for LI & NJ at Alside Supply Center. I met Keith's at his office in Alside's impressive Bethpage showroom on Winding Road. Keith talks about his beginnings with Alside, the how he found himself on the LIBI "ladder". He talks business opportunities within LIBI, shares a couple of very interesting stories about supporting job owners at town hearings with other LIBI members; and the (often unexpected) opportunity to make friends within the organization. Also, if you accidentally damage the side of your home while grilling on your bbq this summer, Keith might be a person you could call.  

Alside Supply Center is wholesale distributor and manufacturer of vinyl sidings, windows, railing systems, and exterior building products for the construction industry. To contact Keith directly, please email him at: [email protected]

Thanks to Keith for spending a morning with me.  If you'd like to be a guest on the show, or know someone that represents LIBI well and should be a guest, please contact me.
