The Vasco Group is celebrating its continued success in growth with an open house on June 21, 2019, and a ribbon-cutting at noon to commemorate its new facility expansion and renovation. The Vasco Group, consisting of Vasco Asphalt, Vasco Sports and Nidy Sports in FL, has successfully grown in business, in employees and in geography since its inception in 1967. Consequently, a new 1,700-square-foot addition – including two conference rooms, a kitchen and 14 workstations – was built on to its existing 4,000-square-foot Massillon location this year. With the contracting help of Scheetz Companies and Sol Harris Day as the designer, this facility overhaul was crucial because the company needed the extra space to accommodate 25 new hires, for a total of 110 Vasco employees, as well as modernizing its offices to enhance the work environment.
“We recruit, train, empower and retain outstanding people – that’s one of our core values,” said Glen Mauer, Vice President of The Vasco Group. “We’re hopeful that this new office will help attract quality people and provide a place where our employees are proud to come to work every day.”
Matt Savage, President of The Vasco Group, echoed Mauer’s sentiment, “We are committed to not only being a contractor of choice but an employer of choice as well. We are excited that our facility upgrades are more representative of our talented team and the future employees we want to attract.”
Starting as Vasco Asphalt in 1967, the company has since incorporated its Vasco Sports Contractors division to expand its services. Then a 2007 acquisition of Nidy Sports Construction Company of Longwood, FL and its 40 employees allowed Vasco to further align its values with client needs. Now, through decades of experience, applied specialized knowledge and the use of the best materials made available today, The Vasco Group currently offers a wide variety of solutions to solve our customers most challenging paving projects.
The Vasco Group maintains a reputation for demonstrated expertise, professionalism and strong customer service. Recently completed projects include The Ohio State University Football Stadium, Jackson High School Tennis Court Facility and Basketball Courts and Walsh College Lacrosse Field, just to name a few. Additionally, Vasco maintains its commitment to supporting area schools, contributing to organizations and charities including Christian Children’s Home of Ohio, First Tee, Ohio Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association, CAST, Unity in the Community and Fellowship of Christian Athletes.
