Over the past 57 years, we have expanded our expertise in the construction of mines, highways and dams, as well as diversifying into construction of pipelines, buildings, heavy industrial facilities and communications. In 1947, William F. Lede, our founder, had a dream to build a global company through consistent excellent performance, top-notch construction, responsible fiscal management, outstanding customer service, rigorous safety training and accountability in every corporate practice. These values continue to be carried out by his sons, Dave and Cliff Lede, as well as all of the Ledcor team.
