This year marks 10 years of RAYWEST DESIGNBUILD leading the way in commercial construction. What started in Fayetteville, NC, has expanded into a multi-state operation with a growing list of licenses.
“It has been a fun learning experience for me, transitioning from commercial banking to residential construction and now to commercial construction. The learning curve has been steeper than I thought, as we are growing and taking on more difficult projects each year,” shared Co- Founder Hector Ray.
Over the past decade, RAYWEST DESIGNBUILD has had the privilege of working with a wide range of businesses, from nationally recognized brands to unique, locally loved establishments.
Some of their notable partnerships include:
“The most rewarding experience is seeing our client’s vision come to life and the excitement of their employees and customers at the grand openings,” shared Ray.
RAYWEST DESIGNBUILD has also made a lasting impact on the commercial construction industry. A major milestone was their involvement with the Retail Contractors Association (RCA)—an organization dedicated to promoting excellence in retail construction. Their journey with the RCA includes:
These achievements underscore the business’s commitment to industry leadership and continuous growth.
“We could not have made it to ten years without dedicated employees and trusted subcontractor partners. They all work together daily to help us build great spaces for our clients,” shared Co- Founder Greg West. “We are excited for the next 10 years as we expand our geographic footprint and client base. We are currently talking to several well-known franchises about building their new stores and restaurants.”
