What the company does

Martin Marietta is America's other aggregates giant: stone, sand and gravel quarries plus cement in Texas. The same magnificent business as Vulcan — local monopolies on a material that can't travel — with its own collection of growing markets.

What will shape its future

  • Public works and industrial megaprojects, the pillar of its demand.
  • Pricing: raising aggregate prices year after year is the essence of the thesis.
  • Weather and housing, the factors moving its short-term volumes.
