We recently celebrated 25 years of business at the Maurer office with wonderful friends, clients and colleagues from near and far.

It was a festive event and reminded us of the privilege it has been to serve and work alongside so many great individuals in the city of Raleigh and across the state of North Carolina. We look forward to the next 25 years!

This former post office and government office building has now come to life as a downtown pizzeria in Sanford. The front entrance, previously the public side of the post office, is now a gelato counter and seating area.

The Benchwarmers tenant space is under construction in the Transfer Co. Food Hall.
There is a large wood-burning oven that will be visible from the seating area. The kitchen is open to the surrounding space so the whole process, from start to finish, will be visible to customers. We can't wait to see the space come to life!
