Bernie Szachara, a seasoned leader with a legacy of innovation and impact, is proud to launch his new venture in the Temporary Wall Systems industry. After an accomplished career at the helm of major media corporations like Gannett Co. Inc. and GateHouse Media, Bernie now brings his strategic vision and dedication to sustainable solutions in construction containment. His new business offers a game-changing approach that not only addresses critical containment needs but also provides an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional methods.
Rooted in Upstate New York for over 20 years, Bernie is committed to strengthening the local community. His business not only aims to create new employment opportunities but also prioritizes giving back through charitable support and volunteer work, fostering a deep connection with the region he calls home. Originally from Binghamton and now based in Rochester, Bernie has close ties to the area, alongside his wife, Jacquie, and their three grown children—Steven, Spencer, and Samantha.
With undergraduate and master degrees from the Rochester Institute of Technology and executive training from Harvard Business School, Bernie combines his background in operations, customer service, and project management with a genuine love for the people and landscapes of Upstate New York. Inspired by his mother, a lifelong entrepreneur, Bernie is committed to building a business that reflects his dedication to quality, service, and sustainable impact in the community he proudly serves.
