b'Its been 65 years since we drove that first nail. Six decades later, were still doing what we love.And it wouldnt be possible without the hardworking men and women who give it their all every single day. Our employees are the real owners. Theyve got skin in the game. Theyre the ones who preserve our legacy. They bring the commitment that makes every project successful.They bring heart.Getting it right the first time isnt just something we like to say. Its a core value shared across our entire company. Thats why Build Smart is more than a slogan. Its the collective wisdom of a team that takes ownership in finding the best solutions. And satisfaction isnt just for clientsits a badge of honor for every person in The Korte Family.As we move into 2024, the real owners of The Korte Company, our loyal, proud workforce, will continue to build with dedication, expertise and the spirit of shared ownership thats guided us ever since that first nail hit home.73'
