In 1932, Claude Sanders, the pioneer of MW Builders' parent company, ventured through unchartered territory and a volatile economic environment to start a small, family-owned plumbing business rooted in midwestern values. In the early '70s, his grandson, Tom Sanders, with the same fortitude and entrepreneurial spirit as his grandfather, opened up new doors for expansion and opportunities by establishing MW Builders, Inc. in 1971 as a general contracting branch of the company.
MW Builders started out in the industry by working on Motel 6's throughout the country, and as of 2021, the company works in nine industries and has 170 employees throughout four offices. The company has become a nationally-respected and relationship-driven commercial construction company that delivers preconstruction, design-build, general construction, and construction management services. MW Builders is a 100 percent employee-owned company with locations in Kansas City, Kansas, and Austin, Dallas, and Midland, Texas.
Although MW Builders has 50 years behind them, they are not ready to slow down. The company has experienced much as a team since its inception and will use those lessons learned for the next 50-plus years to come.
