Industry expertise: Architects, engineers, and contractors

The market for architects, engineers, and contractors is diverse, competitive, and cutting edge. So are our custom online stores.

Industry Experience

Building is our specialty – brand building that is.

As a builder, architect, or engineer, you know how important quality, image, and branding are to a company’s success. It takes a combination of a great product with market awareness to stand out in a competitive field. Many of our staff have spent decades, if not their entire careers, working in these industries. We bring an unparalleled knowledge of your industry to our discussions, so you are guided by experts.

Architects

We know architects.

Architects are trained professionals who combine artistic vision with technical knowledge to create pleasing spaces that meet the needs of their customers. It’s all about design. The visibility and quality of their brand can make the difference in being awarded the next project or not.

This is the first time we have had our own store for our employees. We use it all the time and like to provide hats to our customers promoting our brand.”

Sebastian Senior Architect/Designer

Having an easy source to provide products without worrying about minimum quantities is very important to us.”

Amanda Department Head

For the first time in 10 years, I don’t have a closet full of branded items that are the wrong size or out of date. Now we buy what we need when we need it with no minimums.”

Brandon Principal/Partner

Build a custom online store for your architectural firm.

Engineers

We know engineers.

Engineers need to be recognized by their peers and the firms that hire them. Branding is key to this success. Because they work for everyone in the industry, promoting their name and brand makes sure they are top of mind when someone is considering their next project.

We are not a big company. I like having a good selection of clothing and being able to buy what I need when I need it.”

Dustin Director of Communications

I never thought I could afford to have my own store for my company. Now I cannot afford not to have this resource for my staff.”

Mark CEO/Principal

Whoever came up with this idea of having an online store is a genius. Being able to buy what we need individually or in bulk is terrific. Could not be happier.”

Davis Electrical Engineer

Build a custom online store for your engineering firm.

Contractors

We know contractors.

Contractors make up one of the largest industries in the United States. It is widely diversified and competitive. More than any other industry, they need to be visible on jobsites and in the community they serve. Having a strong brand and being well recognized is part of their marketing strategy and success. Plus, easy access to safety gear and Hi-Viz apparel saves time and keeps staff safe.

We have used other companies. AEC is by far the best, and we have no intention of changing.”

Derek Construction Manager

We were AEC’s first customer over 15 years ago and place dozens of orders each day through our office network across the United States. We’re the largest General Contractor in North America, and AEC makes our work easier by supporting our staff and projects. They are a great partner to have!”

Peter President/CEO

We provide cash allowances to our office and field staff twice a year to purchase t-shirts, vests, hoodies, shirts, and jackets through our store. What a great way to keep staff happy and market our company to our customers.”
