Verdex Construction officially celebrated the opening of their new West Coast office alongside the City of Tampa’s Mayor Jane Castor, Councilmembers Orlando Gudes and Luis Viera, the Tampa Bay Chamber, the Ybor City CRA and community members.

The office, located in Tampa’s historic Ybor City, allows Verdex to continue their expansion on the West Coast of Florida. They’re now up to 30+ employees and five active projects with more on the way!

Visit their new office at 2018 E 7th Ave Tampa, FL 33605.

West Palm Beach-based Verdex Construction kicked off their annual Back-to-School Supply drive to support the Education Foundation of Palm Beach County’s Red Apple Supplies program and the Hillsborough Education Foundation teaching Tools Resource Center. Both non-profits collect and distribute supplies to students and teachers in need.

As the pandemic continues to bring new challenges to families already in need and new obstacles to teachers that are trying to supply each student with their own, individual supplies. We are seeking individuals and businesses to help us fundraise and collect supplies for the upcoming school year.
