• Why Baker Roofing Chose a Different Path: Employee Ownership in an Era of Consolidation - Baker Roofing Companytavily

  # Why Baker Roofing Chose a Different Path: Employee Ownership in an Era of Consolidation. ### What our transition to 100% employee ownership means for commercial property owners and facility managers across our markets. If you manage commercial properties across the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic, you’ve likely noticed significant changes in the roofing industry recently. In July 2025, after 110 years of family ownership, Baker Roofing transitioned to 100% employee ownership through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). For property owners and facility managers, this creates real concerns: Will your local team still be there in three years? ## **What Employee Ownership Means for You**. **An ESOP is a federally regulated retirement benefit plan funded entirely by the company.** As Baker Roofing grows and succeeds, so does the value of each employee’s ownership stake. **What’s different?** Every employee—from the roofer on your building to the estimator preparing your proposal—now has a direct financial stake in your satisfaction.
