He's continuing to live the culture of commitment, determination and hard work that brings opportunity for the company and his family.

Smith Construction. With such a great group of lead men, the opportunities to learn the trades are endless. When I came to C.D.

Scott Krings | "Three generations of my family have or continue to work here. My father provided for our family through his career at C.D. Smith and my nearly 20 years here is providing for mine. There are too many similar examples to count where families have 3rd, 4th or even 5th generation C.D. Smith employees. I think that is unique to our company and creates a very strong group of core employees."
