50 YEARS OF IMPACT

Building What Matters

Founded in 1976, ABC Minnesota/North Dakota has spent 50 years building more than projects—we've built people, companies, safety cultures, and careers. Our chapter exists to support contractors who believe in merit-based opportunity, practical training, and doing the work the right way.

As we celebrate our 50th anniversary, we're also focused on what comes next: the future workforce, evolving safety standards, and the next generation of construction leaders.
