Construction Partners, Inc.ROAD
Industrials

Builds roadways, bridges, runways, and site infrastructure across the Sunbelt, earning from construction contracts and third-party sales of hot-mix asphalt, aggregates, and liquid asphalt cement. Vertically integrated local operations serve mostly publicly funded projects and expand through acquisitions.

Builds and maintains roads, highways, bridges, airport runways, and commercial and residential sites across eight Sunbelt states. Its vertically integrated platform manufactures hot-mix asphalt, mines aggregates, distributes liquid asphalt cement, and performs paving, base-layer, drainage, utility, and site-development work for public agencies and private customers.

Pairs local bidding and project execution with strategically placed materials assets; plant proximity affects project awards because hot-mix asphalt is costly to transport. Expansion comes through acquisitions that add crews, plants, and market density; the network is reported as one operating segment.

Relies mainly on publicly funded work, especially state transportation departments, while private developers supply the rest. Results depend on government infrastructure budgets, fixed-price and unit-price bid discipline, bonding capacity, acquisition integration, weather, and the availability and cost of asphalt, aggregates, fuel, and skilled labor.
