Steve Glenn is CEO of Plant Prefab, a Rialto, Calif.-based builder of high-quality, sustainable, prefabricated single-family and multifamily homes. The company made a splash last year when Amazon announced it had invested in the company through its Alexa Fund, the company’s first investment in home construction. Plant Prefab’s niche is in the custom urban market, which in the past has predominantly been served only by small, local general contractors. Glenn sees an opportunity to build these small urban projects faster, less expensively, and with higher quality using modular techniques. Tune in to hear more of Glenn’s thoughts on why modular construction offers an opportunity to build projects as much as 25% less expensively than site-built homes and why Plant Prefab is developing a new panel to work alongside its prefabricated modules.
