Expanding Capabilities in the Dredging and Marine Construction Industry
UIC is pleased to announce the recent acquisition of a majority share in HME Construction Inc. HME Construction is based in Vancouver, Washington, and is well-known throughout the Pacific Northwest. HME has over 35 years of experience providing marine dock maintenance and dredging services for federal, state, local, and private entities. It boasts a fleet of more than 25 vessels and has a resume of successfully completed projects in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. HME brings its reputation for quality, precise attention to detail, and an excellent safety record to the UIC Family of Companies.
This acquisition continues UIC’s ongoing expansion strategy in the construction industry and enables the company to offer a broader range of services to its valued customers and partners. HME’s strong reputation for excellence and extensive experience in the coastal Pacific Northwest and on the Columbia, Willamette, and Snake Rivers further strengthens UIC’s commitment to growth and expansion along the Pacific Coast.
“We are excited to announce the acquisition of HME Construction. This is a strategic move that will enable us to provide even more services to our customers and business partners,” said Jeevan Pokharel, UIC Chief Operating Officer. “We are pleased to welcome their team into the UIC Family of Companies!”
HME Construction Inc. will continue to operate under its existing name and branding. At the same time, UIC, along with HME’s other minority owners, will work closely with the HME team to help grow and expand its operations and future project locations.
