Eric Croteau

Founder, Host

After recently moving to the Charlotte area, I realized the best way to plug into the construction market was to build the community I wanted to be a part of. With a background in business development for specialty trades, I founded Builders & Brews to meet the local players and create a high-value network from the ground up. I currently serve as a Business Development Manager for Southern Exteriors, where I focus on bridging the gap between developers and reliable trade partners. My goal is to move beyond traditional networking by hosting events that excludes sales pitches to focus on conversations and relationships. I’m dedicated to making Builders & Brews the premier landing spot for anyone looking to grow their footprint in the Charlotte building industry.
