History

Aecon’s predecessor companies include some of Canada’s most renowned construction names. Over the years, companies such as The Foundation Company of Canada, Jackson Lewis, Lockerbie and Hole, Banister Pipelines, Nicholls-Radtke, Pitts Engineering Construction, and Armbro have come together to form what we now know as Aecon.

Starting out in the 1950s as my family’s prefab concrete business in Quebec, the Aecon story is one of evolution and progress. The coming together of companies and people across the country (and beyond) to become a national Canadian construction and infrastructure development company.
