Today, longtime NKBA member Dwyer Marble & Stone Supply celebrates 30 years of shaping design through stone, quartz, and porcelain, marking three decades of craftsmanship, innovation, and inspiration for the design community.

What began in 1995 as a family-owned business in Michigan has evolved into one of the Midwest’s most influential distributors, known for more than just scale. Dwyer has become a design leader and tastemaker, redefining how surfaces can transform a space.

As it looks toward the next 30 years, Dwyer is scaling for national growth while staying rooted in the values that have defined its journey — integrity, partnership, and a passion for design excellence. Its mission remains clear: to inspire the next generation of designers and builders to create spaces that are as functional as they are unforgettable.

Congratulations, and here’s to the next 30! ✨

Join us on Wednesday, May 28th as we welcome National Speaker Jan Neiges from Colorado for her presentation: Selling to Design by NOT Designing to Sell! This month, we will be hosted by E.W. Kitchens in the Michigan Design Center Mid-America Room. Social hour begins at 5pm with our presentation beginning at 6pm.

If you answer YES to any of these questions...then you NEED to learn how to Sell to Design by NOT Designing to Sell:

Do you spend more than 2 hours converting a prospect to a Client?
Do you spend hours to create a design in order to quote before you even get a commitment that the Client is going to buy from you?
Do you find that you are so busy you don't have time for yourself?
Are you stressed because you feel that your projects and Clients manage you?
Are you struggling to find time to follow up on leads?
Is your closing ratio below 90%?

Jan is a dynamic speaker, high energy and guarantees that you will have at least one take-a-away if not more that can accelerate you to the next level of success. CEU: 0.1

You do not want to miss this!
