Since its founding in 1985, Lakefront Roofing and Siding Supply has worked diligently to become a cornerstone of Chicago's roofing and siding supply industry. Under the leadership of CEO Tim Bock, who also serves on the board of NEMEON, the company has grown into a trusted resource for contractors and homeowners. Tim's philosophy, "We treat the smaller guy like a king," reflects the company’s commitment to providing exceptional service to all clients, regardless of size. With a wide range of services, including a custom sheet metal shop, propane filling station, and on-site crane delivery, Lakefront Roofing and Siding Supply has positioned itself as a one-stop shop for building professionals. In 1991, Lakefront expanded its reach beyond Chicago by opening a western-style construction training distribution center in Romania. Local Romanian employees ran the center, and through this initiative, the General Manager established a non-profit organization dedicated to building two homes for children affected by AIDS. At the time, the AIDS epidemic was rampant in Romania, and Lakefront's efforts were focused on helping the most vulnerable children in need. This project was a testament to the company’s global heart, driven by the same compassion and desire to help that they have for the city of Chicago. Lakefront operated this business for 20 years, demonstrating a commitment to philanthropy far beyond local borders. PAGE 8 To learn more about us, visit us at: www.lakefrontsupply.com.
