🎉Reed Family Companies Celebrates 50 years with the Modesto Chamber of Commerce! 🏆 Reed Family Companies is honored to be recognized by the Modesto Chamber of Commerce. The milestone honors decades of steady involvement, investment in the local economy, and strong working relationships throughout the Central Valley.

During the Chamber event, Jeff Reed, President of RFC, reflected on the deeper purpose behind business involvement in the community, drawing on historical perspective and local impact. He shared, “The quality of life is directly proportional to one's involvement in their community,” emphasizing that meaningful engagement goes far beyond day-to-day operations.

Reed also spoke to what makes community organizations like the Chamber so valuable, noting how they bring people together to create positive change. “We find key areas that we can all combine and work at improving our environment, improving our communities,” he said.

For Reed Family Companies, that philosophy is deeply rooted in how the organization operates across its family of businesses. Active participation, collaboration, and long-term investment in the region continue to shape not only the company’s growth, but also the communities it serves.

Our commitment remains clear: invest in people, strengthen partnerships, and contribute to the long-term success of the communities it calls home. Learn more at www.reedfamilycompanies.com.

Construction Safety Week is a time for our industry to come together and refocus on what matters most, protecting our people. At Reed Family Companies, this week serves as an important reminder that safety is part of everything we do across all of our operations. From driver safety on the road to jobsite safety in the field, every role plays a part in building a strong safety culture.

This year’s theme centers on three key principles: Recognize, Respond, and Respect. These pillars encourage teams to identify potential hazards, take action to control risks, and maintain accountability for every person and every task on the jobsite.

Turning our safety principles into daily habits is what drives real impact:
• Visible leadership presence that focuses on critical risks and coaching teams in real time
• Pre-task planning to identify hazards and confirm controls before work begins
• Near miss reporting to learn from close calls and improve without blame
• Ongoing training and follow-through to ensure issues are addressed and don’t repeat

As we recognize Construction Safety Week, we also recommit to carrying these practices forward. By staying engaged, looking out for one another, and holding each other accountable, we strengthen our culture and continue building safer operations across Reed Family Companies.

Sustainability & S.E.R.V.I.C.E.: How We Show Up Every Day 🌱🤝

At Reed Family Companies, sustainability isn’t a separate initiative, it’s part of how we work, lead, and serve every day through our S.E.R.V.I.C.E. Principles.

Across our operations, meaningful progress is already happening, including:
✅ Increased plant efficiency
✅ Energy saving LED lighting
✅ Increased RAP use in HMA operations
✅ Low NOx boilers to help reduce emissions

Small improvements. Lasting impact. 🌱

Sustainability is a team effort, whether you’re in the plant, field, or office. Every role matters, and employees contribute every day by:
• Following safety and environmental procedures
• Turning off unused equipment
• Using water and resources responsibly
• Reporting leaks, spills, or inefficiencies

Doing it right the first time helps protect our people, ensure quality, and reduce environmental impact. ✅ And those same habits don’t stop at work, they carry home:
💡 Turn off lights and appliances
💧 Conserve water
♻️ Reduce waste and recycle
🚗 Maintain vehicles and equipment

💚 This is how we protect our people, strengthen our business, and continue showing up for the communities we serve. Explore more at www.reedfamilycompanies.com.
