Established in 1918, the Associated General Contractors of America is the
oldest, largest and most respected construction trade association in the United
States. With more than 100 chapters nationwide representing more than 33,000
general and specialty contractors, suppliers, equipment manufacturers and
professional service providers, AGC is the voice of the commercial, industrial,
heavy/highway and underground construction industry.
Neither anti-union nor pro-union, AGC is pro-employer. It is a full-service
association providing profit-building services that would be either too costly
or unavailable to contractors on an individual basis. AGC's line of services and
member benefits are the most extensive in the industry.
AGC members exemplify skill, integrity and responsibility, and the association
mirrors these qualities through the range, scope and quality of services it
provides.
