“It’s a big jump for us, but I think it’ll be a great place for folks to have access to better materials,” Adamson said.
The nearly 50-year-old building had been home to Bowl America until last summer. The new spot is twice the square footage of its space on Goodes Bridge. Adamson said the growth of the company’s two main segments have helped Virginia Slate outgrow its current home. Tucker Adamson runs the business with her husband Cassell, whose father started Virginia Slate around 30 years ago. The company paid $3.2 million for the Bowl America building and its 4.6 acres along Midlothian Turnpike between Powhite and Chippenham parkways. Specializing in slate and metal roof supplies, the company is currently based at 2471 Goodes Bridge Road in Midlothian, which it owns along with a pair of quarries in Vermont and Buckingham County. The former Bowl America property at 7929 Midlothian Turnpike was purchased earlier this month by Virginia Slate Co., a local roofing and landscaping supply firm that will convert the 40,000-square-foot building into its new headquarters.
