“The 2020 World of Concrete Auction was our best ever,” affirms CIM Auction Committee Chairman Ben Robuck (Cemex USA). “This year’s auction was a tremendous success, both in terms of the value of donated items and number of attendees. The results are indicative of the high value the concrete industry places on the CIM program.”
