Queens, NY Gamco Corp., the leading New York metro area fabricator of quality architectural metals and fenestration systems, recently marked its 35th anniversary. The company offers custom design storefront and entranceways, curtain wall systems, structural skylights, metal covers and claddings, railings, canopies, façade sunshades, and unique architectural elements. Its customers have expanded from local glass shops and small contractors to include regional architects, general contractors, property managers and owners, and fenestration installation companies throughout the New York metro area and beyond.
“We’re proud to be a New York City-based manufacturer, with over 60 employees and an ever-expanding satisfied customer base of design and construction professionals,” said Lelina Chang, head of operations at Gamco. “Our company is a dedicated contributor to the New York City economy, our employees and customers are here, and we are excited to help build New York.”
Noting Gamco’s success and growth, several New York elected officials have sent recognitions and congratulations in the form of official letters and proclamations.
Queens borough president Donovan Richards in his proclamation named August 8, 2021, as Gamco Corporation Day. Mayor Bill de Blasio, New York state senator Toby Stavisky, and New York assembly member Ron Kim also offered Gamco their appreciation for the contribution and commitment the company has made to the borough of Queens and City of New York.
Launched in 1986 by Taiwanese-American John Chang and his wife Beatrice Chew, the company has grown from a start-up in a small industrial space to a leading regional building products supplier with an 80,000 s/f production facility in Flushing. With experience in metal fabrication, construction, and business, John Chang and Beatrice Chew focused on providing installation services of basic storefront and entranceways for local commercial businesses, then shifted Gamco solely to manufacturing to provide the commercial marketplace with better quality control and lead times. Over the years, Gamco introduced new product lines, added high-end fenestration such as curtain wall and folding glass door systems, as well as architectural metals, all with an emphasis on custom design and fabrication expertise. Early this year, the founders’ daughters Lelina and Melora Chang joined Gamco Corporation to continue its legacy of growth and ensure its ongoing focus on serving the construction community of the region.
“Here in New York, Gamco has established a reputation for product innovation and old-world craftsmanship,” said Melora Chang, head of marketing for Gamco. “We have always aimed to deliver the quality products architects, contractors, and building owners want to make their properties stand out, and our customers value that.”
Gamco products can be seen at many notable properties throughout New York City and the metro area. Most recently, Gamco provided a custom arcade skylight, interior glass walls, and grand entranceways for the new upscale Renaissance Chelsea Hotel by Marriott in Manhattan, and custom curtainwall, window systems, and entranceway for Montefiore Hospital New Rochelle.
