Monteith Construction Corp. Adopts an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), Positions Company for Long-Term Growth, Team Success

Carolinas-Based Monteith Construction, Grey Interiors, and Citadel Masonry are now 100% Employee-Owned

WILMINGTON, N.C., March 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Monteith Construction Corp.—including the companies Monteith Construction and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Grey Interiors, and Citadel Masonry—today announces the adoption of an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), creating a strategic growth plan that directly reflects the company's commitment to holistic team success.

"From day one, people have been central to our company purpose and growth, and for several years now, we have taken steps to make our company an employee-owned one," says John Monteith, company founder and chairman. "We have always led with culture, so making Monteith a place where everyone shares in ownership is the natural next step in our evolution."

"This is about putting ownership into the hands of the people who drive our success," adds CEO and President Bryan Thomas. "Our team brings passion and grit to work each day, and the ESOP now provides a long-term, wealth-building benefit without changing any of our company values. We couldn't be more excited for what the future holds."

Established in 1998, Monteith has grown over the past 25 years to a 165-employee commercial construction business, building across North and South Carolina. The company has four established office locations in Charleston, Myrtle Beach, Raleigh, and Wilmington, and is opening a fifth location in Winston-Salem this Spring 2024.

With the ESOP adoption, 100% of Monteith's current and future employees are eligible to participate and benefit from the plan.

Modern ESOPs are a result of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). According to the National Center for Employee Ownership (NCEO), there are approximately 6,533 ESOPs in the United States, including a mix of private and public companies, and many of which fall within the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry.

Monteith's project portfolio ranges across industries and asset classes—from higher education and healthcare to hospitality and multifamily/mixed use. Recent clients include Atlas Stark, Baker Motor Company, Brookfield Properties, Burroughs & Chapin, Cape Fear Development, Loden Properties, MegaCorp Logistics, North Carolina A&T State University, PulteGroup's Del Webb active adult communities, UNC Health, UNC Wilmington, Wake Tech Community College, and Wilmington International Airport (ILM), among other private and public owner groups.

Beyond its core business, Monteith is actively involved in community outreach initiatives across all markets, including Camp Schreiber Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organizations founded by John Monteith which provides educational and out-of-the-classroom experiences to underserved Wilmington youth.
