In honor of International Women’s Day, QXO, Inc. (NYSE: QXO) today announced the launch of its sixth annual North American Female Roofing Professional of the Year campaign, which invites the public to nominate exceptional women working in the roofing industry across the U.S. and Canada.

“This award reflects the dedication of all the women throughout the industry who mentor, support and lift each other up,” said Rachel Narveson of Proficient Construction, the 2025 winner. “I hope my journey inspires others to embrace leadership, challenge barriers and pursue excellence in every project they take on.”

Narveson was recognized for her professional success and unwavering commitment to championing positive social change and inspiring others.

The nomination period opens today and runs through April 6, 2026, with one grand prize winner receiving $10,000 and tickets, airfare and accommodations to the 2027 National Women in Roofing (NWIR) Days event and the 2027 International Roofing Expo. Four finalists will receive $1,000.

The program is open to female roofing professionals in operations, accounting, sales, ownership, estimating or other key roles throughout the U.S. and Canada who are driving the industry forward with their talent and leadership. Nominations can be submitted online at go.qxo.com/femaleroofpro.

A panel of judges, including QXO executives, prior winners and female industry leaders will review submissions and select five finalists.

The grand-prize winner and runners-up will be announced June 3, 2026, with all receiving funding for professional growth and being highlighted as industry role models.
