Edon Construction Company Co-Founder Ed McGowan has deep union roots. He was a union carpenter prior to starting Edon in 1963, and since then he has created thousands of job opportunities for the union brothers and sisters of the Chicago Regional Council of Carpenters.

Edon has grown from humble beginnings into one of the largest and most highly regarded WBE contractors in the Chicago region. McGowan credits much of that success to his union workforce and the advanced training, skill sets and safety precautions each employee brings to every jobsite.

This Labor Day we salute union contractors like Edon and their endless support of working families.
