Bear Construction Company celebrates its 30th anniversary this summer. Company officials are reflecting on the company’s record growth and revenue, and significant changes in the construction industry.
“It’s a great sense of accomplishment to have achieved the growth that we have and to be recognized for it,” said George Wienold, CEO of Bear Construction. “More importantly, I’m proud of our efforts to develop a loyal client base. We have a dedicated team of professionals who provide top notch service to those clients every day and put their reputation on the line for Bear Construction.”
