Why join the AGC of Missouri?
The Associated General Contractors of Missouri is the leading organization in Missouri representing heavy, highway and municipal utility contractors and their suppliers. Founded in 1925, AGC allows Missouri contractors to speak to the Governor, state Legislature and state agencies with a unified voice on matters of public polity affecting the industry. The Chapter provides information and services to its members to help them improve and excel in day to day operations. AGC guides its members in the fields of labor relations, legislation, and training programs while providing networking opportunities through various social events.

Professional contractors doing road, street, waterlines, bridge and other construction belong to the AGC. Since 1925 the AGC has provided the leadership to pass funding proposals, eliminate or less regulatory burdens, and help change specifications on behalf of the industry.
