Jim Dunn | The Future of Building Design, Construction, & Delivery The Negotiation

Welcome back to another episode of The Negotiation. On today’s show, we speak with Jim Dunn, President at Stack Modular, a Vancouver-based construction company that manufactures, in China, modular buildings for residential, hospitality, and commercial uses. They are then shipped all over the world so fully ready-to-go, Jim says you could live in one comfortably during transportation; the art is on the wall and the sheets are on the bed. Then when they arrive at their destination, they stack them up like Lego in whatever configuration the buyer needs. Stack Modular has been covered in the New York Times, Business Insider, and Huffington Post to name a few. We talk about the unique budgetary, logistical, and labour-related challenges that come with the territory for Stack Modular, why the construction industry has yet to undergo major innovations in 2021, and how the pandemic has impacted Stack Modular’s business operations both inside and outside China. Is this the future of housing in the 21st century? Listen and find out. Enjoy!
