Our gravel business was established in 1941. In 1946, our crushing plant and bulldozer were added. In 1957 we set up a Hot Mix Asphalt plant at our Holmesville pit to replace the cold mix aspalt previously in use in Huron. Since then, we've produced over 1.5 million tons of asphalt and paved over 500 miles of road in Huron County. With pleasure, we join in the salute for the Township of Stanley's 150th Anniversary.
