Munson Inc. Acquires Frank Armstrong Paving, Reuniting Companies After 46 Years

GLENDALE, Wis. - May 9, 2023 - PRLog -- Munson Inc., a leading fencing and paving company serving southeastern Wisconsin, has acquired Butler, Wis.-based Frank Armstrong Paving and Sports Surfacing, a historic reunification of two organizations that parted ways in 1977.

The move brings additional equipment and talented staff to Munson Inc., strengthening the company as a regional provider of asphalt paving, fencing solutions, and construction of tennis, pickleball, and other sport courts. The company also provides seal coating and parking lot maintenance services.

The merger returns Frank Armstrong Paving and Sports Surfacing to its original home. The company opened in 1977 when Frank Armstrong left Munson Inc. to start his own venture. Former Munson Inc. employee, and current Frank Armstrong Paving owner, Scott Greenlees, joined Frank a few years later.

Providing essentially the same services, the two organizations competed and carved out significant market shares. Even after the split, Munson Inc. retained the name Munson-Armstrong Paving Division for its asphalt and sealing operations.

"We have had a longstanding goal to bring the two companies back together again," said Rob Fetherston, Vice-President of Munson, Inc. "We are both quality-detailed in our work, serve a similar customer base and geographical area, and have expertise in tennis, pickleball, and other sports surfaces."

The acquisition will add close to 15 employees from Frank Armstrong Paving and Sports Surfacing to Munson Inc.'s workforce (https://www.munsoninc.com/history/employment-opportunities/), which totaled around 50 employees prior to the reunion.

"We are bringing as many qualified employees as possible to grow our team in the grading, paving, seal coating, and color coating areas," Fetherston said. "The addition of these talented industry professionals is by far the greatest benefit of this merger to our organization."
