Fisher Sand & Gravel

What Fisher Sand & Gravel does

Fisher Sand & Gravel is a privately held, family-owned construction materials supplier headquartered in Midland, Michigan, founded in 1925 as part of the Fisher Companies. The company produces and sells ready mix concrete and construction aggregates (sand, gravel, limestone, crushed concrete, natural stone, and soil products) from multiple plants and delivers them within a defined Mid-Michigan service area via its own fleet of front-discharge mixers. Its NRMCA State Certified ready mix operations are supported by a full-time QA/QC Manager and a digital sales channel (website, instant chat, phone/email dispatch), serving commercial contractors, residential builders, masonry contractors, and homeowners/DIY customers on a per-ton or per-load quote basis.

Beyond its regional aggregates and ready mix core, Fisher Sand & Gravel has expanded into large-scale infrastructure construction, evidenced by approximately US$3.3 billion in new DHS/CBP Smart Wall border security contracts and over $700 million in New Mexico DOT awards (I-25 design-build, Border Highway Connector, and rail grade separation projects) executed with engineering partners Stantec and Horrocks/AECOM and contractor AUI Inc. The business is the founding member of the Fisher Companies, an integrated network of 9 wholly-owned operating divisions covering heavy civil contracting, transportation, asphalt, concrete, aggregates, port terminals, equipment services, and a golf course, providing cross-divisional cost and logistics advantages. The company is now executing on a multi-state growth strategy that extends far beyond its Mid-Michigan home base, while sustaining its traditional sales-led, unit-priced regional materials business.
