Building the vision

Paul Hemmer Jr. knows his family had a
great name in construction in the greater
Cincinnati area, but his vision spans well
beyond Ohio and Kentucky.

Hemmer, CEO of Paul Hemmer Cos.,
comes from a family that has been in the
construction business in some form or
another for more than 85 years.

When John Hemmer, Paul’s grandfather who
originally started the family construction
business, retired, Paul and his father, Paul
Sr. started the Paul Hemmer Cos. in
1982.

While the family history was a good starting point, the new company was anything
but an old-fashioned construction company. Hemmer’s vision was to tackle new
challenges and truly put an entrepreneur’s
touch on the construction business.
Because of that drive, Paul Hemmer Cos.
today has three different business lines:
real estate and developmental services,
design and construction services, and facilities management services.

With the expansion of services offered,
the company has been able to grow consistently over the last 25 years, as it has
more than 180 employees today, but it’s
also been able to expand to new geographical challenges. With Paul Hemmer
Jr. leading the company’s vision for the
future, new divisions were formed,
including a facility for the maintenance
service operation in Hebron, Ky., in 2004
and a real estate and construction branch
opened in Chicago.

With the Hemmer name spreading word
of quality construction service to new
areas, it won’t be long before it’s known
well beyond state lines.
