Marcus Construction is made up of two business units, Agribusiness Industries and Commercial/Industrial. Agribusiness Industries includes dry fertilizer storage, warehouses (chemical, seed, liquid fertilizer, bulk, and packaged products), office and training centers, and complex renovation projects.

Taylor Marcus joined the company in 2017 and currently serves as the Vice President of Operations.

I’m super excited about our future as I partner with them and continue to drive towards our long-term goals of growth and development.”
