Since 1955, Skender has been a family-owned business based in Illinois. Located in Chicago, Skender focuses on design, construction and manufacturing projects. “I was born and raised in Illinois,” says Mark Skender, Chief Executive Officer. “My father started the business in Chicago and it was just natural that as we expanded the business, Illinois would be our location. A lot of it is based on family history.”
Skender has broadened beyond its original construction groundwork to include start-to-finish projects in construction, design and building component manufacturing functions. This expansion includes a meaningful investment in a new, Chicago-based advanced manufacturing subsidiary as well as the acquisition of boutique design firm Ingenious Architecture.
