Beloit: Exciting Changes on the Horizon with XYZ Company’s Major Renovation and Expansion
Big things are happening in Beloit, Wisconsin! ABC Supply Co., Inc., one of the area’s major employers, is in the midst of a thrilling $3 million renovation and expansion right at its National Headquarters. As you stroll by, you might notice the windows shrouded in blue tarp, a sign that real progress is underway.
Acquisition Sparks Growth
What’s fueling this renovation? ABC Supply recently acquired Roofing & Supplies, Inc., a well-respected family-run business based out of Richmond, Virginia. Initially founded back in 1970 by Luther Linwood Caudle Sr., this company has become a go-to resource for local contractors, specializing in residential roofing, gutters, and all those essential accessories that keep our homes secure and stylish. Now, under the leadership of Luther Caudle Jr. and his sister Gay Caudle, the Caudle family’s legacy continues as they transition their business under the ABC Supply umbrella.
A New Venue for Beloit
But wait, there’s more! ABC Supply is also connected to an exciting new addition to the city—a shiny new ballpark appropriately named ABC Supply Stadium. Set to open its doors next Tuesday, this venue aims to usher in professional baseball’s resurgence in South-Central Wisconsin. Developed with a blend of passion and investment totaling $37 million, the stadium has taken 13 months to come to life and promises to bring a whole new level of entertainment to the region.
This snazzy stadium, which accommodates 3,500 seats for baseball and up to 6,000 for concerts and special events, boasts a unique center-field entrance that opens directly into downtown Beloit. This inviting design is perfect for families and friends who want to grab a bite at local businesses before catching a game or event. With approximately 1,500 public parking spaces available within a quick 10-minute stroll, accessibility has never been better!
Features that Charm
What can attendees expect when they visit ABC Supply Stadium? Beyond the impressive seating, the ballpark is decked out with synthetic turf and classic dirt and clay infields, allowing for year-round use. The architects thoughtfully included a 360-degree concourse, ensuring that spectators can enjoy the game no matter where they sit, and the stadium’s finishing touch comes with a nostalgic flair, featuring 250,000 bricks that give it a timeless look.
Foodies will rejoice at the variety of culinary options, which include a stand dedicated to Leinenkugel-branded beer and a quirky slushie that combines Wisconsin’s love for cocktails into a delightful brandy Old-Fashioned slushie! While some portions of the stadium are still under construction—such as a future kids’ play area and additional group suite spaces—the intention is clear: to create a beloved community gathering spot that boosts downtown Beloit’s growth and vibrancy.
Future Expansion Plans
As if that weren’t enough, ABC Supply is also eyeing expansion in Milwaukee! The company plans to lease a distribution center at Towne Corporate Park-Granville that will employ between 15-30 people. This site will see around $1.5 million in renovations to establish a 61,900-square-foot distribution area alongside a cozy 6,200-square-foot office.
With over 14,000 employees spread across roughly 800 locations nationwide, ABC Supply is not just a leader in the roofing supply industry but a vital part of Wisconsin’s economy. It’s clear that with upcoming renovations and expansions, Beloit is about to experience a major boost in both infrastructure and local business.
As the sun shines on these developments, it certainly looks like Beloit is ready to embrace a bright future, and ABC Supply Co. is leading the charge!
