12/15/2009

The Collier Building Industry Association (CBIA) has named Stock Construction, the 2009 Builder of the Year. The award was announced Saturday, December 12 at the CBIA’s annual Installation Banquet.

Brian Stock, CEO of Stock Development, the parent company of Stock Construction, accepted the award.

“Stock Construction one of the most respected builders in the Southwest Florida Real Estate Market,” said said David Aldridge, President of CBIA. “Brian has been in the construction industry all of his life with his father, KC Stock, as a friend and mentor. His Midwestern roots are evident in his professional life with his company, including his decision years ago to bring Bob Imig down from Wisconsin as President of Stock Construction. You can count on them to stay true to the values that have shaped it from the beginning, to their attention to detail and a commitment to give back to the community through charitable contributions and participation.”

Earlier this year, Stock Development and Stock Construction received 21 Sand Dollar Awards from CBIA for their work at Lely Resort. Among the Sand Dollars awards were Community of the Year honors, four Clubhouses and pool awards, three residential design awards and two interior design awards.

“The Stocks have been very involved in the Sales and Marketing Council, the Parade of Homes and the Sand Dollar Awards,” said Aldridge. “The reputation of the company has been solidified with the recognition from several prestigious awards, including: the Governor’s Business Diversification Award for Entrepreneurship, the Collier County Economic Development Council’s Excellence in Industry Award for Entrepreneurship, Lee Building Industry Association Developer of the Year award and many national, state and local awards including Excel, Sand Dollar and Pinnacle Awards.”

Despite the housing downturn, Stock Development has remained financially strong and continues to have new home sales success. Stock Construction has built more than 1,800 homes in Southwest Florida over the past eight years.

From January 1 through November 30, Stock Development posted 240 new home sales at its communities of Lely Resort, Paseo and Vivante. The company’s sales volume totaled $90 million.

“It is an honor to receive this award on behalf of Stock Construction and I would like to thank CBIA,” said Brian Stock. “This is a testament to the dedication and quality of the Stock employees. In particular, it is a tribute to Bob Imig, the President of Stock Construction, who has poured his heart and soul into the company. I am proud that Stock Construction has remained strong in challenging times and is expanding. Sales are strengthening; we currently have more than 100 new homes under construction and in permitting; and we are developing new residential offerings for a future that we think is very bright.”
