“We’re proud of our heritage as an American, family-run company that has helped revolutionize the building and home improvement industries during the past 75 years,” said James E. Winchester, Jr., CEO for The QUIKRETE Companies. “From day one, my father, Gene Winchester was driven to meet the needs of both contractors and homeowners with the highest-quality products at fair market value, and that commitment remains a core value of QUIKRETE today. It’s been quite the journey from a single plant in Columbus, Ohio manufacturing three products to plants across the country manufacturing hundreds of products, but a journey made possible thanks to our hard working employees and loyal customers.”
