Builders Supply Co. of Petersburg, Inc. (Petersburg, VA)

Career spans decades discusses how an employee of Builders Supply Co. of Petersburg, Inc., a Virginia building materials dealer that has had an ESOP in Existence for At Least 25 Years, has recently retired:

Martin decided to retire earlier this month after more than six decades with the same company. "I had to make some room to give the youngsters a chance," he said laughing.

But to Martin, retirement does not mean relaxation. He comes in every day to help his former colleagues for five or more hours. And he still holds stock in the company that he plans to sell in five years to invest in other stock.
