Aaron is himself an example, as he’s been there almost 17 consecutive years.

Like any other company, we’ve had some turnover, we’ve had people who come and go – but we also have a lot of longstanding staff. We have many employees who have been here for five, 10, 15 years.” As previously mentioned, Rocky Point also forms close relationships with consultants and suppliers, and those relationships also tend to go back many years.

According to Aaron, market leaders like IBC and RHEEM are the kind of partners that Rocky Point seeks out. Once they find partners like that – partners that offer a strong product and responsive customer service – they try to hold on to them for the long run. MARCH 2022
