Silvi Materials Expands into the Southeast
Silvi Materials, a prominent name in the construction materials sector, has taken a significant step by acquiring
Eagle Rock Concrete, a leading ready-mix concrete producer operating out of North Carolina. This acquisition, which involves 100% of Eagle Rock's assets and operations, marks Silvi's strategic entry into the flourishing Southeastern construction market. The deal is set for closure after September 1, 2025.
Eagle Rock Concrete is known for its excellence and commitment to quality, having established a robust reputation across central and eastern North Carolina since its inception in 2012. The enterprise, which operates primarily within the Raleigh-Durham area, boasts an impressive nine high-production ready-mix plants, effectively catering to the intense demands of the local residential and infrastructure development sectors. Through this acquisition, Silvi is poised to significantly bolster its market position while continuing to honor Eagle Rock's established brand and operational framework.
In the words of
Laurence Silvi II, Co-President of Silvi Materials, the acquisition is aligned with the company's core values and vision for sustainable growth. He commented, "Eagle Rock has built an exceptional business — one that aligns with our values, culture, and vision for growth. We're not here to change what's working. Our goal is to support the team, strengthen operations, and grow together."
Under the dynamic leadership of
President Jay Loftin and his accomplished team, which includes Vice President
Adam Loftin, COO
Chris Sizemore, and CFO
Henry Willey, Eagle Rock has set high standards in the industry. Their well-maintained fleet, with mixers averaging just 2.2 years in age, signifies a commitment to operational excellence and customer satisfaction. They serve an expanding market that includes Wake, Durham, Johnston, Franklin, Wilson, Edgecombe, Nash, and Pitt counties, which are all experiencing rapid population growth and infrastructural demands.
Jay Loftin expressed the sentiment that the acquisition symbolizes more than just a business transaction; it represents a continuation of a legacy built on integrity and service. He stated, "Silvi Materials brings operational expertise, logistics capabilities, and a genuine respect for the culture we've built. We're excited for what we can accomplish together."
For Silvi Materials, founded in 1947 and now entering its third generation as a family-owned business, this expansion is a natural progression of their ambitious growth strategy. Already possessing 25 facilities across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Ohio, the company now sets its sights on North and South Carolina. Their vertically integrated business model encompasses every segment of the concrete supply chain, from quarries and sand mining to cement import and ready-mix production. This control enhances operational efficiency and quality assurance, setting Silvi apart from competitors.
The integration of Eagle Rock Concrete into Silvi’s operations creates a formidable cornerstone for the new Southeast division. In doing so, it not only strengthens Silvi's ability to address the growing cement demands in North Carolina—currently at a deficit of three million tons—but also projects the potential for significant growth across various sectors including residential, commercial, and industrial, as well as Department of Transportation (DOT) projects and high-rise constructions.
Laurence Silvi II highlighted the importance of this acquisition for both companies: "This is a milestone moment for both companies. By combining Eagle Rock's local strength with Silvi's resources and logistics, we're building a platform for long-term growth in North Carolina."
As this new chapter unfolds, stakeholders in the Southeastern construction sector will keenly observe how this strategic alignment between Silvi Materials and Eagle Rock Concrete unfolds to shape the industry landscape for years to come.
