A Legacy of Hard Work
Our roots trace back to 1984, when Carlos Pereira founded Olympic Concrete. Having immigrated from Portugal at 14 years old, Carlos worked his way up from laborer to respected business owner. His dedication, integrity, and craftsmanship shaped the company’s foundation, establishing a standard of excellence still evident today.
Carlos instilled these values in his son, Paul Pereira, who now serves as president of Core Concrete & Masonry Inc. Together, the Pereira family has carried forward a tradition of reliability, technical skill, and innovation, ensuring every client benefits from decades of proven experience.
