Where We Started

George Reed Company Timeline

A Foundation of Integrity and Respect

In partnership with his father, Guilford, and older brother, Ted, George Reed began agricultural land leveling and canal building with mules and Fresno scrappers in the Tracy area of California in the 1930’s. The brothers separated during the Depression. In 1944, building on a reputation for integrity and respect for customers and co-workers, George began a construction business with his wife Rose doing the accounting.

A Passion for Operational Excellence

After graduating with a Bachelors Degree in Civil Engineering and a couple of years in the Army Corp of Engineers, Wendel joined his father in 1953. Together they built George Reed Inc. into a vertically integrated construction and materials business with the addition of sand & gravel plants, quarries, asphalt hot plants, and concrete ready-mix operations. Following a teaching career, his wife Norma joined the business in 1975 to manage the downtown Modesto rental properties, housing the home office functions for the expanding family of Reed Companies. With a belief that “there is nothing we do today, that we can’t do better tomorrow”, Wendell and Norma’s legacy is a family business known for Excellence.

A Family Business Driven By Its Core Values

With a Bachelors Degree in Civil Engineering and Masters in Business Administration, Jeff joined Wendell in 1976 and expanded the business to include pavement preservation and equipment manufacturing with an international footprint. With Jeff’s passion for Innovation, the third generation of company core values is “Driven by Excellence and Innovation, while treating all with Integrity and Respect. His wife, Margaret, a chemical engineer, joined the company in 2006 after a career with Shell Oil Company. Margaret is President of George Reed, Inc.
