We commend Robert and his family for building an outstanding business driven by a dedicated team, and we look forward to achieving many more successes together.”
According to SRS, Link, Dickerson, and Schwind will continue to lead the company under the Metro banner to ensure continuity and consistency for customers, suppliers, and employees.
“We are thrilled to officially announce our partnership with SRS. For decades, our family has taken great care to build a company that caters to our customers’ needs, from single-family start homes to premier commercial projects,” owner Robert Link said. “We’ve worked hard every step of the way to expand and grow while still putting people and relationships first. We’re fortunate to have found in SRS a partner who will care for our team and customers while expanding our reach in the region.”
