background
                    Hercules Materials Holdings, LLC was formed in 2020 to provide ready mix concrete services in Metro
                    Detroit and beyond. Since that time, we have grown into one of the largest ready mix concrete suppliers
                    in Metro Detroit. We currently employ over 240 people at our six facilities. Our drivers are union members
                    and can earn over $33 per hour. Hercules’ affiliates operate concrete production facilities in Detroit
                    (Hercules Concrete, LLC), Center Line (Titan Concrete, LLC), Pontiac (Zeus Concrete, LLC), Ypsilanti
                    (Pegasus Concrete, LLC), and Marshall, Michigan (Atlas Concrete, LLC). We are excited and proud that our
                    newest state of the art facility is located at 3399 E. McNichols in Detroit (Kronos Concrete, LLC).
                
project description
                    The Kronos facility is located in Detroit’s Cadillac Heights area and is bounded by E. McNichols Road to
                    the South, Jerome Street to the North, Moran Street to the east and Joseph Campau Avenue to the
                    west. The entire Kronos facility is zoned M4 (Intensive Industrial). A zoning map is attached 
                     here. 
                    The facility area will cover approximately 29 acres. A map showing the location of the facility 
                     here.
                    The Kronos facility is similar in technology, size and scope to our plants in Center Line, Ypsilanti, and Pontiac.
                    The new Kronos facility represents a $10,000,000 investment in Cadillac Heights. To our knowledge, this
                    is the largest single private investment in Cadillac Heights in over 20 years. Conceptual renderings
                    showing before the investment and after the investment and other information can be viewed 
                     here.

jobs
                    We are excited to invest and create jobs in Cadillac Heights. On May 20, 2024, we conducted a job fair at
                    Kronos and received over 250 applications. Photos of the event can be viewed 
                     here.
                    Below is a quote from David A. Johnson II, Senior Pastor at Kingdom Covenant Church across from Kronos regarding the
                    job fair.
                    “We were so honored to partner with Hercules Concrete for their Community Job Fair yesterday. To
                    create opportunities for employment for people in the city of Detroit and throughout the metropolitan
                    area is a joy for us to be a part of. My wife Lady Kimya, our staff, and the entire membership of Kingdom
                    Covenant Church are committed to seeing our community thrive. The turnout for this event was a great
                    step in a positive direction.”

                    Kronos is proud to partner with the Detroit Police Department in Project Green Light Detroit. This
                    project is the first public-private-community partnership of its kind, blending a mix of real-time
                    crime-fighting and community
                    policing aimed at improving neighborhood safety, promoting the revitalization and growth of local
                    businesses, and strengthening DPD's efforts to deter,
                    identify, and solve crime.

construction vs cancer
We were proud to partner with the American Cancer Society for the 2024 Big Dig of Michigan: Construction vs. Cancer event! The Big Dig of Michigan allows children of all ages a hands-on and immersive introduction to the construction industry and field of STEM. We provided equipment for demonstrations, letting children operate select machinery with the assistance of certified volunteers and take photos in the driver's seat or next to these larger-than-life machines! You can also expect construction-themed crafts, demonstrations, and activities. Funds raised through the Big Dig support the American Cancer Society's pediatric initiatives.
