Shafer and R.W. Mercer Company Build Southern Michigan Bank & Trust

Shafer Redi-Mix, a trusted Michigan commercial concrete supplier, partnered with R.W. Mercer Company to build the new Southern Michigan Bank and Trust in Jackson, MI. This project is a standout example of innovative design, efficiency and durability of locally sourced concrete. For decades, we have been the go-to Michigan commercial concrete supplier for banks, businesses, and infrastructure projects.

Why Concrete? The Smart Choice for Southern Michigan Construction

The entire site, from foundations to flatwork and sidewalks, is constructed with long-lasting concrete, which provides a range of benefits. Concrete was chosen not only for its aesthetic appeal but also its practical advantages. This includes reduced lighting and maintenance costs, improving safety, and longer lifespan compared to asphalt.

The 800 cubic yards of premium concrete, varying in thickness from 4 to 8 inches, were carefully selected to create durable, attractive foundation for the new bank. This project demonstrates Shafer’s commitment to excellence in Michigan commercial concrete construction.

Efficient Execution & Award-Winning Results

The construction process was completed with remarkable efficiency, showcasing the capabilities of the contractor and supplier.

The expert coordination between Shafer and R.W. Mercer ensured a fast, cost-effective timeline while delivering high-quality results. The use of concrete allowed for swift completion while ensuring high-quality results that will serve the bank for many years to come. The project schedule was optimized. Meaning the fast execution translated into both time and cost savings.
