About Commercial Ready Mix Products,
Inc.
With
its beginning in northeastern North Carolina in 1975, Commercial Ready
Mix Products, Inc., now reaches into the metropolitan Tidewater area of Virginia,
including Norfolk, Portsmouth, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, and Suffolk.
Our business employs 170 people from throughout
northeastern North Carolina and southeastern Virginia.
Ready Mix concrete production is the main line of business.
The company also operates a sand and gravel operation and a fleet
of quad-axle dump trucks and tractor-trailer hauling units.
As a family owned
business, Bob and Jane Newsome's venture
began with only a small batch
plant and two mixer trucks. Many times the same men who delivered the concrete during the
day repaired the trucks at night.
The first concrete plant was located in tiny Cofield, North Carolina,
which also included the company headquarters.
In March, 2003, the corporate office moved into a
modern and spacious facility featuring tilt walls,
stamped concrete, and exposed surfaces. It is
located just west of Winton, NC on US Hwy. 158.
Since
their beginning in 1975, the Newsome family has
guided the company in an pattern of increased growth.
Currently, there are seven stationary concrete plants in operation and one
portable batch plant,
with a fleet of 70 mixer trucks,
all within a 75 mile radius. The
concrete is used in all types of jobs and applications, commercial and residential.
Our Construction Division places and finishes
concrete for residential and commercial projects. Operations are supported by a maintenance
unit, which
completes repairs and upgrades on the company's trucks, equipment, and
plants. Also, the
Truck Haul Division
transports the raw materials
used within the company and makes sand, topsoil, mortar sand,
crushed concrete, and stone deliveries to customers. The company's
Sand and Gravel operation provides high
quality raw materials that are NCDOT and VDOT certified.
In 1999, the company focused on centralizing operations in its
Virginia marketplace. So,
in September, a centralized dispatch office was opened in Suffolk,
responsible for taking all orders for the area.
Centralized dispatch has proven successful. The company is proud of its customer service.
A dedicated dispatch team works diligently to provide on time
orders, while best utilizing the company's fleet of trucks.
The
most recent addition to the North Carolina market is
a ready mix plant in Elizabeth City. With a
new plant located next to the Vulcan Materials
yard on Knobbs Creek Drive, CRMP, Inc. has
positioned itself to supply concrete to meet the
anticipated
growth in and around the Elizabeth City, Camden, and
mainland Currituck area. The facility office is constructed of insulated
concrete forms or ICFs, where concrete
is poured into foam-insulated forms to create the walls, thereby replacing the
normal wooden studs.
In 2002, CRMP, Inc.
began a new chapter in its history with a
portable
plant onsite at a Wal-Mart distribution center
project near Charlottesville, Virginia. In
2003, we completed a similar facility for Wal-Mart near
Dover, Delaware. In October, 2004, we provided
onsite concrete for a Sterilite distribution center
in Clinton, South Carolina. The production total
for the three distribution centers exceeded 150,000
cubic yards. In October, 2005, portable
operations moved to Portsmouth, Virginia to provide
onsite concrete for the APM Marine Container
Terminal. That project was completed on time
in May, 2007.
The
company welcomes the opportunity for more exciting growth
and expansion. The Newsomes, Bob, Tim, and Jane, along with General Manager Charles
Harrell and their support staff, are poised to lead the company into new and
challenging projects. The commitment to
retain the best personnel, to invest in the latest
technology and modern equipment and rolling stock,
and to provide excellent customer service is the
basis of the company philosophy; a
philosophy that will remain the foundation for the
company's future as it moves forward in the ready
mix industry.
