Aggregate, construction, and land development services across North America
Fisher Industries operates a vertically integrated construction and aggregate business spanning crushing, drilling, blasting, paving, concrete, and asphalt services. The hiring mix is heavily weighted toward field and operations roles (construction 72, ops 20), with a notable emphasis on safety infrastructure—comprehensive safety strategy, hazard assessment programs, and worker training dominate the active project list. This hiring + project pattern signals a company scaling operations while addressing on-site hazard reduction and compliance burden, their top two pain points.

Fisher Industries is a family-owned construction and land development company headquartered in Dickinson, North Dakota. Founded in 1952 as Fisher Sand & Gravel, the company has grown through organic expansion and vertical integration to serve aggregate processing, concrete, asphalt, drilling, blasting, and paving markets across the upper Midwest and Southwest. The business spans multiple operating units—including General Steel & Supply Co. (established 1967 for equipment fabrication and repair)—and now employs 1,001–5,000 people. Now in its third generation of family leadership, Fisher operates a unified team structure managing field operations, manufacturing, logistics, and engineering across the United States.
Core tools include Bluebeam, Autodesk, OnBase (document management), Microsoft Office suite, Adobe Creative Suite, and mapping (Apple Maps, Google Maps). No major tech adoption or replacement activity in recent data.
Top pain points are reducing on-site hazards, budget and schedule management, and field coordination issues. Active projects reflect this: comprehensive safety strategy, accident investigation programs, hazard assessments, and worker training dominate the roadmap.
