Steady Growth

In the five decades since its founding, Benson-Orth has completed hundreds of projects including, but not limited to, shopping centers, foundries, single- and multi-story office and medical buildings, auto dealerships, motels, and heavy manufacturing buildings. Projects range from small additions (5,000 SF) to large, new corporate facilities (400,000 SF) and everything in between.

A New Generation

July 25, 1969, Benson-Orth Associates was founded by partners Ken Benson and Bob Orth to offer general contracting services in the local Twin Cities community. Operations began humbly, out of the base of Ken’s home in Golden Valley, Minnesota. With Ken in charge of sales and development of commercial and industrial buildings and Bob running the field operations, the firm flourished and grew steadily for more than 20 years.
