Cited for construction company’s recent growth and ability to build a motivated team
Goshen, N.Y. (March 25, 2011) – Pete Berman, CEO of The Ruby Group, a Goshen, N.Y.-based development, consulting and construction-management company, has been included on ENR New York magazine’s prestigious “Top 20 Under 40” list, an annual feature on up-and-coming figures in the construction industry.
ENR New York covers the greater tri-state area construction sector and is one of the industry’s leading trade publications.
“These talented individuals started new divisions, found new markets and displayed leadership, diligence and integrity,” the magazine says in the Top 20 Under 40 feature in the Feb. 7 issue. “Look for them to play an important role in shaping the industry’s future.”
ENR New York (previously called New York Construction News) noted that Berman’s family–owned company tripled its revenues during 2010 from the previous year, in part because of successful partnerships with banks that owned distressed properties.
Berman said he was excited to be among this year’s honorees.
“I grew up with ENR and other magazines around the house because my father was a builder,” Berman said. “I always respected the people featured in the magazines, so to become one of them is a great honor.”
