Kessel Construction recently received several prestigious awards during Butler Manufacturing’s annual sales meeting in Marco Island, Fla.

Kessel, which is currently celebrating 85 years in the construction business, has been an authorized Butler Builder for more than 70 years.

During the meeting, Kessel received the $50 Million Dollar Lifetime Volume Award, which is presented to Butler Builders who have sold over $50 million in Butler pre-engineered steel buildings and roofing systems over the lifetime of the company.

Butler’s regional sales manager Melissa Stewart praised Kessel’s success.

“I’ve grown up in the building business, and I’ve had a chance to work with a couple generations of the Kessel family,” she said. “You don’t reach the $50 million dollar milepost without years of dedication to your craft and building some great buildings. Many towns and cities across Pennsylvania and the southern tier of New York have been transformed by a Kessel building that becomes the centerpiece where people work, play and pray. What a great legacy!”
