Custom acquired Timmins Diesel Limited, bringing fuel delivery to the Timmins region.
John Elliott grows Custom Concrete Group into Canada’s largest privately-owned ready-mix company. John and Fraser sold Custom Concrete Limited to St. Lawrence Cement Inc., and at the same time, John bought Fraser’s equity in the remaining assets and parted ways. They divested all assets South of Highway 9. Still, they retained The Sarjeant Company all assets North of Highway 9 across Simcoe County and Muskoka as well as the newly founded Custom Concrete (Northern) in Timmins and Iroquois Falls, as well as the portable plants in Detour Lake, Chapleau and Cochrane. Again, a new era was born.
