Mid-Valley Gravel Company (MVG Construction) has been a staple in the Mid Willamette Valley since its founding in 1967 by Ray and Barbara Ellis. The company's inception stemmed from the closure of a local sawmill, prompting the Ellis family to process and sell bar run gravel from Barbara's family farm. Over the years, MVG has grown from its humble beginnings, incorporating in 1969, and establishing itself as a reputable contractor specializing in road construction, commercial site preparation, underground pipework, demolition, and bank stabilization. With two quarries located in Philomath and Coburg, the company leverages its resources to provide year-round employment and deliver high-quality construction services and rock products.
Presently, the Ellis family continues to play an integral role in the business, with key management led by DeeDee Ellis, who oversees finances, equipment, and personnel. MVG is recognized as a woman-owned business since 2011 and has maintained a strong commitment to community engagement by donating to local organizations such as the Philomath Food Bank and Boy Scouts. The company is known for its exceptional workforce, averaging around 40 employees, who are not only skilled in various construction tasks but also dedicated to contributing to a positive and supportive work culture.
Accredited by the Better Business Bureau since 2009 and members of esteemed industry organizations, MVG prides itself on customer-centered construction solutions that prioritize safety and health. Their commitment to quality, innovation, and problem-solving has enabled them to serve the local community effectively for over four decades, fostering strong relationships with clients and ensuring that each project meets their high standards and expectations.
