The 112th
spot on the recent release of Forbes’ list of America’s largest private
companies belong to Walsh Group. With a revenue of $3.62 billion, it is no
wonder that this company, founded in 1898, will be part of the list.
Walsh Group is a family owned business
that is in the construction industry. It is currently being managed by the
fourth generation of Walsh. It was Matthew Myles Walsh who started the business
of general building construction and it was not until 1949 that the company got
incorporated in the State of Illinois. The business provides general
contracting, design services and construction management to national clients
through their subsidiaries: Archer Western Construction and Walsh Construction.
Two of their recent major works include the Women’s College Hospital in Toronto
Canada and the redevelopment of the Rainbow Hydro-Electric Station in Montana.

other facilities to support their operations. The business is headquartered in
Chicago, Illinois.
