De Jager Construction, Incorporated has been a leader in retail construction since its founding in 1970 by Richard De Jager and Bob Menkveld. Originating from Richard's family's residential construction background after immigrating from the Netherlands, the company swiftly adapted to the booming demand for retail buildouts as the suburbs of Grand Rapids expanded.

The company's extensive portfolio includes a diverse range of retail clients, from apparel and home décor to restaurants and specialty retailers across the United States. With a commitment to providing exceptional service, De Jager Construction employs seasoned on-site superintendents and project managers who bring years of industry knowledge to each project. This ensures that all construction needs are met efficiently and professionally, resulting in satisfied clients that return for future projects.
De Jager’s dedication to maintaining “Old World” craftsmanship and high standards has allowed it to build long-lasting relationships with clients, including notable names like Kinney Shoes (now Footlocker) and Lerner Stores. As the company continues to evolve, its focus remains squarely on delivering quality workmanship at competitive prices, consistently meeting the expectations of a rapidly evolving retail landscape. With a proud legacy and an eye toward future growth, De Jager Construction is poised to remain a key player in the retail construction industry.
