Ozinga Named Joliet Small Business/ Employer Of The Year

The Joliet (Ill.) Region Chamber of Commerce and Industry has selected Ozinga as its 2018 Small Business/Employer of the Year. The award was announced December 13.

Ozinga’s Joliet Yard serves as a hub for the ready-mix concrete and materials and logistics entities of the company. Ozinga’s ready-mix operation also provided the concrete for a number of jobs in Joliet over the 2018 season, including projects at Joliet Cold Storage Facility, First Logistics, Will County Courthouse, and the M&E Global Group.

“We’re extremely excited about this award and the opportunity to serve the Joliet community for years to come,” said Marty Ozinga IV, Ozinga’s president. “We strive to make a positive impact on the people, families, and communities in which we work, and this award is a testament to our commitment to that goal.”

“The location allows us to supply vital resources for the construction process and development in Joliet and surrounding areas,” said Ozinga.

Ozinga will be recognized during the chamber’s Annual Dinner and Celebration of Success on January 17, 2019.

Ozinga is a fourth-generation, family-owned American business in the construction materials and logistics industry. It provides concrete, aggregate materials, and energy solutions in multiple states through a fleet of barges, boats, rail and its well-known red and white striped concrete mixers.
