Craig Webb
Emcee, Consultant, Keynote Speaker
Webb ranks among construction supply’s best-known commentators, industry chroniclers, and public speakers. His annual Construction Supply 150 is the most comprehensive, detailed report on the state of the industry produced today, and his annual Deals report provides construction supply’s most complete roundup of acquisitions, openings, and closures. His Webb Analytics Report newsletter is a must-read for the industry, as are his daily posts on social media. Before launching Webb Analytics in September 2018, Webb spent 12 years as editor-in-chief of ProSales magazine, winning several national awards for his reports on lumberyards and specialty dealers, and five years as head of Remodeling magazine, where he produced the nationally known Cost vs. Value Report. A lifelong journalist who has reported from three continents, Webb brings a reporter’s skills and a comedian’s touch to his presentations to create a memorable, lively, up-to-the-minute report on what’s happening and what matters most to builders, remodelers, manufacturers, and the building industry supply chain.
