Olympic Companies, Inc. has a rich legacy spanning over 100 years, originating in 1918 with the foundation of Conroy Brothers Company by Joseph and George Conroy in Minneapolis. Initially specializing in residential lathing and plastering during the flourishing post-World War I period, the company established a strong reputation for craftsmanship and community engagement. In 1972, Olympic Wall Systems, Inc. was created as a sister company to Conroy Brothers, focusing on metal stud framing and drywall installation, which complemented Conroy's work in commercial plastering, stucco, and fireproofing.
The two entities operated under a shared roof, eventually merging to form Olympic Wall Systems, Inc. in 1999. To reflect its diverse range of specialty contracting services, the company transitioned to Olympic Companies, Inc. in 2010, continuing its evolution as a leader in the industry. This trajectory includes strategic expansions, such as locations established in Milwaukee, Sioux Falls, and Fargo.
Olympic Companies prides itself on its commitment to safety, innovation, and superior workmanship, ensuring each project meets the highest standards. Noteworthy projects like the Essentia Vision Northland in Duluth underscore its capabilities and ambition in the construction sector. As a family-owned business, Olympic Companies values its employees and fosters a culture that resembles a family environment, encouraging unity and professionalism. The company actively seeks skilled tradespeople, maintaining a focus on their development and success, as part of its mission to consistently deliver exceptional construction experiences.
