Allied Blacktop

What Allied Blacktop does

Allied Blacktop Company is a privately held, family-owned commercial asphalt paving and maintenance contractor founded in 1954 and headquartered in Maple Grove, Minnesota. The company provides end-to-end asphalt lifecycle services — new paving, milling, overlay, patching, crack sealing, sealcoating, chip sealing, sweeping, parking lot striping, catch basin reconstruction, ADA upgrades, concrete repair, and asphalt reclaiming — delivered with commercial-grade equipment including Elgin Pelican sweepers and computerized chip spreaders. Its processes have received endorsement from the Minnesota Department of Transportation, and it operates a 'Green Machine' sustainability program using recycled materials and coal tar-free products.

Allied Blacktop serves a horizontally diversified customer base across the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area, with primary segments being commercial property owners and managers (shopping centers, office complexes, retail, multi-family), municipal governments, educational institutions (K-12 schools, colleges, and universities including the University of Minnesota), and religious/non-profit organizations, with a smaller residential driveway segment. Named enterprise customers include General Mills, Mystic Lake Casino, Treasure Island Resort and Casino, Rosedale Shopping Center, Kraus Anderson Real Estate, Link Logistics, and CBRE-managed properties; municipal clients include the Cities of Blaine, North St. Paul, and Cottage Grove.

The company generates revenue through two streams: one-time project-based fees for paving, reconstruction, milling, and overlay work, and recurring maintenance contracts for sealcoating, crack sealing, sweeping, and related services. Pricing is quote-based with no public price list. Go-to-market is direct field sales supported by an 'ALLIES in Construction' alliance program with general contractors, plus procurement-channel access via a Sourcewell cooperative purchasing contract and CAI Minnesota partnership. Marketing relies on a website with 35+ city-specific landing pages, local SEO, an active blog, radio advertising, and tracked referrals. The company employs 70+ people (firmographic sources indicate 101-250) and operates seasonally from a single Maple Grove headquarters.
