Keith Rozolis to retire as CEO and continue as executive advisor and board member; Mike Jost named chief executive officer.

ABC Supply Co., Inc., the largest wholesale distributor of roofing, select exterior and interior building products and outdoor solutions in North America, today announced that Chief Executive Officer Keith Rozolis plans to retire effective December 31, 2026. As part of the company's leadership succession plan, President and Chief Operating Officer Mike Jost has been appointed chief executive officer effective January 1, 2027.

Rozolis joined ABC Supply in 1999, helping establish the company's first strategic marketing department and ushering in a period of significant growth and transformation. During his tenure as CEO, beginning in 2014, the company has strengthened its market position, more than doubled its location count and expanded its footprint across North America. He also guided the business through major acquisitions, the expansion of new business verticals and strategic investments in technology, operations and customer service.

“Leading ABC Supply has been the greatest privilege of my career,” said Keith. “I am extremely proud and humbled by all we have accomplished together. The company is in great hands with Mike, and I couldn't be more confident about what's ahead for ABC Supply.”

ABC Supply Founder Diane Hendricks reflected on Keith's leadership and the lasting impact he has had on the company.

“Keith's impact on this organization has been tremendous,” said Hendricks. “Through years of growth and change, he helped strengthen a culture that puts people first and promotes the American dream. We are grateful for his leadership, friendship and countless contributions.”

Mike Jost has served as president and chief operating officer since 2024 and has spent decades driving operational excellence, customer service and strategic growth across the organization. He is widely respected by associates, customers and suppliers alike for his steady leadership and deep understanding of the business.

“I am honored to have the opportunity to lead ABC Supply into its next chapter,” said Jost. “Our strategy remains the same, our commitment to customers is unwavering and our culture is our greatest asset. We have strong momentum, an exceptional team and a solid foundation for continued growth. I look forward to building on what we've achieved together.”

Brent Fox, chairman of the board of ABC Supply, expressed the Board’s confidence in the company's future.

“Keith leaves ABC Supply stronger than ever, with a thoughtful succession plan in place,” said Fox. “Mike is a proven leader who has been an integral part of the organization’s success. We are confident he will continue building on that foundation through growth and innovation in the years ahead.”

The leadership transition will take effect on Jan. 1, 2027, and Rozolis will remain involved with the company as executive advisor and as a member of ABC Supply's board of directors. Until then, Rozolis and Jost will work closely to ensure a seamless leadership transition.

Wendy Marvin explains how a strong roofer-supplier relationship is game changing. 

Roofing is a challenging business to succeed in, with contractors needing to navigate everything from insurance policies to evolving building codes and more. But one thing that can make it a little easier to operate as a roofer is having the right supplier relationships. To learn more about this, Megan Ellsworth hosted Wendy Marvin of Matrix Roofing for an episode of Stories from the Roof.  

Wendy and Matrix are coming up on their 20th anniversary in business and looking back at those two decades in operation, Wendy highlighted the importance of the support of their long-term roofing supplier, ABC Supply. She explained, “Even as large as they are, ABC has done things for me that have really helped our company...We’ve had some business hurdles we've had to overcome, and they've been behind us every time.” 

One example of how ABC Supply has backed Matrix comes from 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown. Wendy shared:  

During the COVID shut down we had jobs open but weren’t able to work. And we called ABC and told them straight, ‘Look, we don't know if we're going to make our payment this month.’ And they took it in stride, telling us ‘Okay, no problem, just stay in contact with us and let us know how things go.’ And it just showed how invaluable that relationship was to us. You can’t put a dollar value on that type of support. 

Her advice for other contractors wanting this type of close and supportive relationship with their supplier? Remember, it’s a two-way street. She elaborated, “It's two-sided, when you show respect, then it’s likely to be reciprocated. If you don’t show the care and respect you want, you won’t get it back. Take the time to get to know the people, from your rep to the person that's in finance. You have to have caring from both sides to build a relationship.” 

Listen to the whole episode to learn more about building a strong relationship with your supplier.

Contractors can now order RoofScope measurement reports directly through myABCsupply to support quoting, ordering and job planning tasks. 

Contractors using myABCsupply can now request RoofScope powered by Scope Technologies® measurement reports from inside the same app they already use to manage ABC Supply orders. The integration brings roof measurements into the material-ordering workflow, allowing users to enter a jobsite address, select RoofScope and choose the report type that fits the job without a separate RoofScope login. Reports can be delivered in as little as three hours, are processed 24/7 and are available for projects across the U.S. and Canada. 

The goal is to give contractors accurate roof data before they quote, buy materials or send a crew to the jobsite. RoofScope reports include information such as pitch, area, planes, eaves, ridges, valleys and other measurements presented in report pages designed for contractor use. 

Two report options are available through the myABCsupply workflow. RoofScopeX is designed for fast quoting, lead qualification and ballpark material planning, with square footage, pitch information and an overhead image highlighting structures on the property. RoofScope provides a fuller material-ready report with total squares, every roof edge and fold, plane-by-plane characteristics, color-coded and dimensioned CAD roof drawing and aerial imagery. 

Additional RoofScope services include RoofScope+, GutterScope, SidingScope and full exterior take-offs. Blueprint take-offs are also available for new builds and renovations, allowing contractors to get measurements before a structure is complete. “RoofScope has been a trusted partner over the years with the estimation services that they provide for our ABC National Builder customers,” said Jeff Leyden, vice president of residential new construction sales for ABC Supply. 

Each report is produced with proprietary measurement software and reviewed by CAD-trained technicians before delivery. RoofScope says the reports carry a 99% accuracy guarantee, helping contractors reduce overages, short orders, job delays and repeat trips.

We had a great time sharing stories and photos over social media with our roofing community!  

National Roofing Week is an annual event hosted by the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) that aims to raise awareness of the roofing professionals who keep our communities safe and secure. The event also acts as a way to build community with other professionals, both near you and across the country.  

Participation in National Roofing Week is primarily conducted online by posting photos and videos through the #NationalRoofingWeek2026 hashtag. And NRCA has created themes for each day of National Roofing Week to guide posts.  

Sunday – Kickoff  

The week kicked off with posts about the importance of roofers. NRCA started everything with a post sharing the schedule for the week and some highlights from last year’s National Roofing Week! Here at The Coffee Shops™ we joined in the fun on all our social media pages, making sure to thank the coating installers, roofing professionals and contractors who make our community amazing. 

Monday – Signature projects 

For the Monday theme, NRCA invited National Roofing Week participants to share photos showcasing their company’s signature residential and commercial projects. There were too many amazing projects posted to put them all here, but some that stood out to us came from QXO, Sika and Eagle Roofing Products!  

QXO’s post was a carousel of some of their customers projects, including one from Toitures Scott, one from Nedlaw Group and one from RUHS in California. Likewise, Eagle Roofing Products’ post showcased signature projects featuring their concrete roof tiles from across the country.  

As for Sika, they took the opportunity to shine the spotlight on their 2025 Sika Project of the Year award winners, which includes stunning projects like the Samuel Oschin Air and Space Center project in Los Angeles, California and the South Station Tower project in Boston.  

Tuesday – Charitable projects 

The next day of National Roofing Week was all about giving back, and the National Women in Roofing (NWIR) Oregon Council stole the show with a free roof!

The replacement went to a community member in need, which is an incredible reminder of the power our industry has to do good.

They put it best in their post:  

Seeing contractors, manufacturers, distributors and industry partners come together with a shared purpose — without competition, without agendas, and focused solely on helping someone else — is truly inspiring. For one day, company names and logos took a back seat to teamwork, generosity and service. 

Projects like this showcase the heart of our industry. The relationships we build, the willingness to lend a hand, and the collective impact we can make when we work together are some of the best parts of being in roofing. 

NWIR extended huge thanks to industry partners, like Malarkey Roofing Products, ABC Supply, SRS Building Products, Owens Corning, Bliss Roofing and Raindrop Roofing NW, for making this incredible charitable project possible. 

Wednesday – Employee appreciation 

The midpoint of the week was all about the people who get things done – the employees that keep our industry moving. For this theme, the #NationalRoofingWeek2026 hashtag was flooded with pictures and appreciations for hardworking workers around the country. 

Drexel Metals posted some behind-the-scenes of their team hard at work, captioning it, “To everyone who continues to show up ready to learn, teach and push the industry forward: thank you. Your commitment is what drives stronger partnerships, better projects and continued progress year after year.” 

IKO Industries and CertainTeed also posted, shouting out the ROOFPROS who get the job done every day and recognizing the “craftsmanship, innovation, and dedication of the teams who help bring CertainTeed products and solutions to life” respectively.  

Thursday – Training and learning 

For Thursday, NRCA chose training as the theme, inviting contractors and companies to share the ways they keep learning and growing on the job. For this theme, GAF joined the party, sharing an incredible milestone from their GAF Roofing Academy – since 2020, the tuition-free program has helped more than 3,000 individuals find employment in the roofing industry!  

And this is just one of the many stories added to the #NationalRoofingWeek2026 hashtag! The Durable Restoration Company posted about the hard work their craftspeople put into their apprenticeship program and QXO shared how they connect their team with everything from stand downs to plant tours. 

Friday – Celebration 

And you can’t have National Roofing Week without taking the time to celebrate the amazing industry we are all a part of! For this theme, the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT) took their followers on a trip down memory lane, sharing the “conferences, tournaments, regional events and industry gatherings where Texas roofing professionals connect, learn and celebrate together.”  

Drexel Metals also posted, sharing a common sentiment of thanks related to the power of the industry, “From the shop floor to the jobsite, your dedication, craftsmanship and collaboration are truly what make a lasting impact. We’re proud to be part of an industry built on innovation, resilience and strong partnerships.” 

Saturday – Wrap up 

Overall, this year’s National Roofing Week was a resounding success. From everyone that posted to event sponsors like International Roofing Expo, Georgia-Pacific Building Products, SRS Distribution, Roofing Alliance and SOPREMA, it was all made possible thanks to the incredible roofing community.  

The Coffee Shops crew already can’t wait for next year’s roofing week! As Atlas Roofing put eloquently in their final #NationalRoofingWeek2026 post, “This week gave us the opportunity to celebrate the people, organizations and partnerships that make the roofing industry such a rewarding one to be part of. Here’s to another year of collaboration, innovation and success.”
