The Coffee Shop Crew is Going to IRE 2023!

By Evelyn Witterholt. 

We can’t wait to go to this year’s International Roofing Expo, the industry’s largest trade event. 

This year’s International Roofing Expo (IRE) is one you don’t want to miss! The Coffee Shop crew will be there at the roofing industry’s most influential yearly event and we hope to see you there. IRE 2023 is all set to take place March 7-9 at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas, Texas. You can check out all important updates about the event on our Countdown to IRE 2023 page, sponsored by CertainTeed. 

The Coffee Shop crew will be at booth #9309 representing our main site RoofersCoffeeShop.com. We’d love for you to stop by and say hello. At our booth, we’ll be streaming interviews and episodes of Coffee Conversations, sponsored by SRS Distribution, live from the expo. We also encourage you to check out our partners’ booths as well. 

For contractors interested in getting a ProCertification®, visit the National Roofing Contractors Association’s (NRCA) booth #3119. There, they will be hosting ProCertification demonstrations right on the show floor. Be sure to stop by if you’d like to learn more about becoming ProCertified! 

One event we encourage you to attend, especially if it’s your first time at IRE, is the First-Time Attendees Reception, an event that we are sponsoring! The event will take place on Tuesday, March 7 at the House of Blues in Dallas, right before the IRE Welcome Party, and it’s free for all first-time attendees of the expo. We will also be giving away fandanas with the RoofersCoffeeShop® (RCS) and TAMKO® logo. 

On Wednesday, March 8, you won’t want to miss the Roofing Alliance’s Student Competition in room D163/165. This free event will showcase six student teams from universities across the nation as they present project proposals for Globe Life Field in Dallas. Show up to show your support for future members of the roofing industry! 

Another event you don’t want to miss on March 8 is SRS Distribution’s Raise the Roof Foundation Charity Concert! This year’s concert event will feature performances from Ray Wylie Hubbard, Darius Rucker and Eric Church, plus a speech from special guest, former President George W. Bush. There will also be a tailgate event before the concert, featuring a special performance at 3:00 p.m. from our Multimedia Producer, Megan Ellsworth!
