Orono heavy civil construction company Sargent Corp. announced Monday that it has acquired E.L. Vining & Son Inc., an earthwork and site development contractor based in Farmington.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Founded in 1956 by Everett Vining, the company’s experience in government department of transportation work, sitework, utility and landfill projects complements Sargent’s core services.
“E.L. Vining & Son’s culture mirrors our own, rooted in doing the right thing, honing our craft, and investing in people and winning in the field. We’re excited to welcome their talented team of professionals into employee-ownership and continue serving the communities of Western and Central Maine with even greater resources,” said Eric Ritchie, president and CEO of Sargent.
