A dominant performance in the design-build distribution center market as well as a leading role in the construction industry’s battle against COVID-19 have earned Chicago-based Clayco Inc. ENR Midwest Contractor of the Year honors by a vote of ENR’s editors.
This is the second time Clayco has received the award. It won in 2011 as it was just moving to Chicago, but now it’s one of the nation’s largest privately owned real estate, architecture, engineering, design-build and construction companies, with more than 2,600 employees and $3.8 billion in 2020 revenue from the Midwest region. That revenue level is up 17% from $3.25 billion in 2019.
