Columbia-based general contractor M.B. Kahn Construction has finalized an agreement to acquire McKenzie Construction Corp. of Virginia Beach, Va.

The transition will be effective Nov. 1 and allow M.B. Kahn to continue expansion efforts and better serve clients in the region, according to a news release.

“McKenzie’s company values, quality, vision, longevity and safety standards make for the perfect alliance with M.B. Kahn,” said Bob Chisholm, president of M.B. Kahn. “This acquisition allows us to expand upon both McKenzie’s success and our own success in southeastern Virginia and eastern North Carolina.”

M.B. Kahn Construction has been in operation since 1927 and is consistently ranked as one of Engineering News-Record’s top general contractors. McKenzie Construction has been in operation since 1976, specializing in projects such as schools and public service buildings, worship facilities, and commercial office and retail buildings.

“McKenzie Construction has had the privilege of providing construction services to many valued clients over the past four decades,” said Bob McKenzie, president of McKenzie Construction. “The company’s success and longevity can be directly attributed to the personal commitment of each employee to provide the best possible product to those clients. That personal commitment will continue as they become part of a team with M.B. Kahn’s strong values and company reputation.”
