In 1995, Build.com was launched by David Berman who was at the time a plumbing wholesaler. Berman's new Build.com enterprise built websites for companies in the building products industry and Berman launched the company officially at the 1995 Kitchen and Bath Show (KBIS) in New Orleans that year. To launch the company he built a website for German faucet company, Grohe. Berman worked with Al DE Genova, Grohe America's head of marketing, and traded the website for a corner of the Grohe America booth at the KBIS trade show. At this point in the infancy of the internet, Grohe.com represented the first website in the U.S. plumbing industry. Following the Grohe America website, Build.com acquired other clients including Delta Faucets.
