Holliday Sand & Gravel

What Holliday Sand & Gravel does

Holliday Sand & Stone, operating under the Holliday Sand & Gravel brand, is a regional construction aggregates producer founded in 1928 and headquartered at 7355 W 162nd Terrace, Overland Park, Kansas. The company operates more than 15 quarries, sand plants, and processing facilities across Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma, employing nearly 250 people. It serves the Kansas City and Tulsa metropolitan areas as well as western Missouri under multiple regional brands including APAC Kansas City, Ash Grove Aggregates, Holliday Sand & Gravel, and Johnson County Aggregates. The company is a privately held subsidiary within the CRH (Oldcastle) Americas Materials division.

Holliday's product portfolio spans crushed limestone, river gravel, recycled concrete, manufactured sand, fill sand, concrete sand, asphalt sand, masonry sand, base rock, pipe bedding, rip rap, decorative gravel, pea gravel, roofing gravel, deicing salt products, ice control blends, and agricultural lime. The underlying technology is conventional aggregates extraction and processing — quarrying, crushing, washing, screening, dredging — supplemented by recycled concrete processing. The company sells a commodity-like product differentiated primarily by location, breadth of SKU, and logistics proximity to customers.

Revenue is generated through one-time transactional sales of aggregate materials, priced via project-based quotes rather than published rate cards, with credit terms available for qualified customers. The go-to-market combines direct sales from company locations, a website-based request-a-quote flow, and an online customer portal for account management and payment. Customer segments are horizontal: construction contractors (primary), residential homeowners, and government/municipal public works. As part of CRH's broader network, Holliday benefits from group procurement, capital allocation, and back-office scale, while operating with regional autonomy across the central U.S. heartland.
