Welcome to Creating Structure Podcast episode #46 with Tom O'Malley, Managing Partner at Clover Architectural Products. Tom is well known in the curtain wall and architectural products industry and it was my pleasure to spend an hour with him in this discussion.

From starting in the City of Chicago's Mayor's office of Special Events to help organize the World Cup, to Romano Brothers Beverage,  then Doralco, and now Clover, Tom has applied himself, built relationships, gained trust, insight and knowledge along the way.

 Tom has traveled extensively to client locations and events, and is a well recognized person in the industry. Tom's progression to the role of managing partner at Clover seems to be a fitting and natural expression of his rise through the industry.

Tom is an experienced partner with a demonstrated history of working in the building materials industry. Tom has strong entrepreneurship skills in negotiation, business planning, operations management, sales, and retail. Tom directs sales and marketing at Clover. His roles builds on two decades of relationships to help grow Clover's revenue.  Tom's and Clover's primary goal is to be a valued partner to the architectural community and a great customer to their vendors.

Clover provides the following products:

  • Sunshades/Light-Shelves
  • Grilles/Screen walls
  • Stainless steel cladding
  • Clad doors and storefront
  • Entrance Metal Systems

Tom also is a Partner in American Custom Fabrication. They are a fabricator of break metal, linear bar grilles, fin tube enclosures, clad doors and frames, custom hand rails, canopies and much more.

Tom provides some fun and interesting insights during the conversation and has many interesting experiences from which to share.

Enjoy!
