The 2022 Salute to Business (StB) Honoree is Sampson Construction! Sampson Construction has been shaping Lincoln’s built environment and supporting the community for 70 years. Founded on the principle that a promise and a handshake are as good as a contract, the family-owned business has grown from a local residential builder to a nationally recognized and trusted commercial construction company. With offices in Nebraska, Colorado and Wyoming, Sampson Construction has more than three hundred employees and has completed projects in seventeen states. Company President John Sampson said, “Without our people, Sampson Construction would not be what it is today. I cannot give enough credit to the many great employees that have been part of the Sampson team, both past and present. They are our company’s greatest asset.” Sampson’s investment in the community goes beyond construction. At the corporate and individual levels, they have been engaged and involved as financial supporters, volunteers, board members, leaders, and advisors for more than thirty public, private and not-for-profit organizations in the communities where the company is located.
