Fisher Industries is a diversified family of companies renowned for its contribution to the aggregate production and heavy civil construction industries. Founded in 1952 by Gene Fisher in rural North Dakota, the company began as Fisher Sand & Gravel Co. and quickly established itself as a leader in portable crushing operations. Recognizing the need for durable, customizable equipment, Gene founded the affiliate General Steel & Supply Co. in 1967, which enabled further growth and success.
Under the guidance of his son, Tommy Fisher, the company expanded its reach to Arizona and the southwestern United States, broadening its services beyond just aggregate production to include concrete, asphalt, drilling, blasting, paving, and other essential infrastructure needs. Today, Fisher Industries is structured through a unique, vertically-integrated business model that allows it to handle projects of various sizes with efficiency and reliability.
Fisher Industries has now entered its third generation, with Tommy’s sons, Grant and Ryan, becoming active members of the business, continuing the legacy established by their grandfather. Their collective commitment to teamwork and innovation allows Fisher Industries to take on challenging projects, including bridges, levees, roads, and walls. The businesses operate through various divisions such as Fisher Grading & Excavating, Fisher Ready Mix, Southwest Asphalt, and several others, providing comprehensive solutions to meet the complexities of modern infrastructure demands.
With a strong emphasis on quality, integrity, and customer service, Fisher Industries aims to deliver sustainable solutions and reliable products, all while maintaining a focus on innovation in equipment and operations. Their reputation and extensive portfolio demonstrate their capacity to fulfill ambitious construction projects, ensuring that they tackle even the toughest jobs with expertise and dedication.
