FINFROCK Receives Award for Expansion into Palm Beach County 

As FINFROCK moves closer to the completion of a new precast concrete manufacturing facility and administrative offices in Belle Glade, the Apopka-based company received the “Rural Deal of the Year” Award by the Florida Economic Development Council for its move to Palm Beach County. The Business Development Board of Palm Beach County was also recognized for helping broker the deal to build the more than 140,000 square-foot facility on approximately 94 acres, which is expected to have a $242 million economic impact on the region and will be completed later this summer. 

The award was accepted by Scott Zdroik, director of business development at FINFROCK. Zdroik was also part of the Leadership Broward team that received the Judge’s Choice Award for their class community project for Broward Partnership, which is committed to reducing homelessness by promoting independence and self-worth through advocacy, housing and comprehensive services. The Leadership Broward team developed a plan to find employment for the homeless community in Broward County.

“This was a great week for us in South Florida where we were an integral part of two awards,” Allen Finfrock says, CEO of FINFROCK. “We take our commitment to where we live and do business seriously and are passionate about serving our community, whether that’s through an organization like Leadership Broward or creating jobs at our newest facility in Belle Glade.”

FINFROCK offers efficient and cost-effective precast/prestressed concrete design, manufacturing and construction solutions to local clients. The company’s leading-edge DualDeck Building System is FINFROCK’s unique off-site construction brand, allowing projects to be completed significantly faster than traditional construction methods.

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
