2021 Round Up | Year in Review
It was a BIG year.
Celebrating 35 years in business, a new website, and back to (somewhat) normal business operations, Urban Quarry’s commitment to exceeding expectations through quality products, innovative technology, and superior craftsmanship is stronger than ever!
We continue to be grateful for the strong support from our preferred brands this year – Cambria, HanStone, Silestone by Cosentino, Dekton by Cosentino, Caesarstone, and Caribou Block. Many of which provided and sponsored monthly employee lunches in an effort to touch base with our Urban Quarry team members, discuss upcoming projects and new product launches. 2021 also saw a return to in person meetings as our Account Managers were back on the road visiting their clients, showrooms and offices.
New Website
Our management team spent a lot of time at the beginning of the year working on our new look, finalizing our corporate values and looking for ways to improve your online experience with us. In October, we were finally ready and launched our brand new website featuring a ton of informative and inspiring content. Click through and take a look at some of the new features we’re really proud to showcase.
GOHBA Annual Housing Design Awards
In November, the Greater Ottawa Home Builders' Association (GOHBA) held its annual Housing Design Awards, virtually. As we always do, we were proud to sponsor this event, but equally honoured to have won four trophies, co-submitting with some amazing partners! This is a huge accomplishment for us and a big thank you goes out to our entire team. This is would not be possible without their hard work, as well as our talented partners. The awards include:
- Production Kitchens 125 sq./ft or less – with Deslaurier Custom Cabinets (Festive Zest)
- Production Kitchens 201 sq./ft. to 250 sq./ft – with Deslaurier Custom Cabinets and Metric Homes (Nuance Neutrals)
- Custom Kitchens 251 sq./ft. or more in traditional ($75,000 & under) – with BEX Interiors (Bennies Corners) which also won The People’s Choice Award!
