BuildDirect company history timeline
After experiencing "complexities and inefficiencies", Booth founded BuildDirect in October 1999 with friend Rob Banks.
In 2002 they launched www.Builddirect.com, an e-commerce site for home improvement products and building materials.
During the financial crisis in 2008, the company nearly went out of business but survived by changing their business model to include suppliers lending their product on consignment to BuildDirect warehouses.
On June 10, 2015, Builddirect acquired DraftingSpace, a software company based in Waterloo.
