Today, construction materials supplier LafargeHolcim acquired
the assets of Metro Mix, LLC, a ready-mixed concrete manufacturer
in Denver.
“Over the past 10 years, Denver has been a dynamic and growing
market, and Metro Mix has been a part of that growth by
successfully meeting customer needs,” said Guy Edwards, CEO for
LafargeHolcim’s US Aggregates & Construction Materials
business. “We see significant synergies between the Metro Mix
operations and our local Aggregate Industries business that will
allow us to strengthen our customer service and offerings in the
region.”
Founded in 1999, Metro Mix has more than 50 employees at its two
ready-mix plants situated in Denver and Castle Rock. Metro Mix will
continue to operate under its current name.
“The building construction business is very competitive and to
grow, you need to be teamed with a partner who values talented
employees and quality customer service,” said Keith Minor,
co-owner, Metro Mix, LLC. “We believe in surrounding ourselves by
the best employees, products, equipment and resources, and I am
confident that partnering with LafargeHolcim will enhance our
ability to serve our customers.”
According to Eric Tyrrell, also co-owner, Metro Mix LLC, the two
businesses complement each other. “This is an opportunity for both
teams to share expertise, networks and resources across our
businesses, and to learn from one another’s experiences to help
grow the greater Denver market.”
