Made in the USA

Chief Buildings is a US based company. Our products are Made in the USA in our own plants located in Grand Island, NE, Rensselaer, IN, and Lancaster, SC. We buy our raw materials from US manufacturers just like us. Our personnel are Chief employees that work out of one of our company owned facilities or one of our other remote locations. We never outsource work, especially design or detailing, and we never offshore jobs. We could do things differently, maybe even cut some costs along the way, but that’s not our only goal. Keeping jobs in our communities and abiding by our own set of standards is what defines us.
