GMC ROOFING & BUILDING
SHAFTER, CALIFORNIA
GMC Roofing and Paper Products not only acted as Mathew’s first collaborative company, but solidified his permanence within the paper industry on the west coast. In partnership with Chris DiSalvo and Glenn Passmore, Chakola spent the majority of 2000 and 2001 engineering the saturating plant that now produces more than 50 million dollars in roofing material each year. This decision would unknowingly spark inspiration for Chakola’s California Paper Company nearly a decade later.
