Harvey Building Products expands its commercial vision

Harvey Building Products, the Waltham, Mass.-based dealer and manufacturer, has formed a new commercial projects division and appointed Abhi Singh as its managing director.

The company said it has already provided window and door solutions in the commercial market for the past two decades on a regional basis. Singh will now lead the company's expansion of niche solution-based offerings nationally. 

According to Jim Barreira, CEO of Harvey Building Products, Singh was chosen based on his track record and “growth-oriented approach.”

"Abhi is incredibly talented and has proven his mettle time and again in various industries. We have no doubt Harvey's commercial division will thrive under his leadership,” Jim Barreira said in a statement issued by Harvey Building Products.  

Singh’s career in the construction sector includes recent leadership roles as senior vice president at A.H. Harris & Sons, Inc., general manager at Hajoca Corporation, president at Atlantic Supply Corporation and Mid-Atlantic regional director of sales and operations for HD Supply. 

"I am incredibly honored to join the Harvey team and lead the charge into the commercial arena,” said Singh.  “We are laser focused on creating a world-class, commercially focused organization. We will succeed by building on the long-standing Harvey tradition of providing exceptional service and solutions to our customer partners, taking care of our employees, and being trusted stewards of the industry."

The commercial division is already fully operational, including full teams of sales pros, estimators, and project managers. Harvey’s core commercial project business is focused on hotels, assisted living facilities, multi-family residential developments, and government-financed housing, the company said.

"We plan on leading the commercial market to new heights by providing best-in-class custom solutions and products on each and every project we touch," said Singh. 



Harvey sells directly to contractors, builders, general contractors and other building industry professionals. In addition to manufacturing vinyl windows and doors, they also distribute siding, roofing, decking and trim. The company has approximately 1,500 employees and operates two manufacturing facilities, 35 distribution centers and 14 product showrooms.
