Businesses Elevating Businesses - with Missy Scherber from T.Scherber Demolition & Excavating & John Nordby and George Trujillo from Kraus Anderson
This podcast features Missy Scherber from T Scherber Demolition & Excavating, John Nordby and George Trujillo from Kraus Anderson. Missy talks about her journey taking over a demolition and excavation company from her husband and the challenges she's faced being a woman in a male-dominated industry.
John and George discuss their experience working in construction and the importance of collaboration, specifically through the St. Paul City’s Construction Partnering Program (CPP). They talk about how Krauss Anderson, a large construction company, is partnering with T Scherber Demolition to create a win-win situation for both companies.
John emphasizes that there is a business case for partnering with small businesses, as they often have lower overhead costs and can provide the same level of service as larger companies, if not better. They're currently documenting their experience to see what they can learn from and what they can recreate for future partnerships.
