BY KATIE MAHONEY | CHIEF MARKETING & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT OFFICE

Growing up on farms and working previous careers in the Ag industry, partners Taylor Groff, Collin Julius, and Ean Julius identified an opportunity to be a solution provider in feed and grain processing.

“There was a need for a Mid Atlantic based general contractor in the industry,” explains Groff. “We’re a solution provider to design, engineer, procure materials, and manage subcontractors for those in feed manufacturing and grain processing.” Customers undergoing substantial renovations or expansions often end up overlooking costs, or have challenges in managing large capital projects.

Working with GroffJulius means there is one person responsible, a much-valued service for businesses.

There is a generational shift in leadership occuring in manufacturing. Tenured team members are retiring, and the next generation doesn’t want to run capital projects, they want to run the business. And that’s where we come in.
