We have a lot to look forward to as the page turns with Pedro and David stepping into the leadership roles of NFC. They are going to be a dynamic duo with their combined experience, motivation, and knowledge. It is with great pride that I leave you in the capable hands of Pedro and David.”  

“I am honored to be elected as President of the National Framers Council for this interim term,” says Pedro Loureiro. “I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the NFC Steering Committee and the Structural Building Components Association (SBCA) for entrusting me with this responsibility once again. It is a privilege to serve such a dedicated and hardworking industry. I would also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Chris Breedlove for his remarkable leadership and dedication over the past three years. His commitment has been instrumental in advancing our mission, and I look forward to building upon the foundation he has established. Thank you to everyone for your continued support, and I am excited to work together to drive forward the initiatives that will shape our industry’s future.”
