Date: 7/14/2011
Employees and Guests Celebrate with Party
DiSabatino Construction Company recently celebrated 30 years in business with a reception at the University of Delaware’s Clayton Hall. Employees and guests enjoyed a fun evening with dinner, dancing, games, and prizes.
Company founder and president, Larry DiSabatino, spoke at the event and imparted several interesting statistics about the company. For instance, over the past 30 years, DiSabatino Construction has completed over $750 million worth of work. In addition, DiSabatino Construction currently employs over 300 talented people in various construction and maintenance trades, some of which have remained with the company from its inception and were honored at the event.
DiSabatino Construction is part of a long tradition of builders in the DiSabatino family. Larry’s great-grandfather, Ernesto, emigrated from Italy to Delaware and founded Ernest DiSabatino and Sons with his four sons, including Larry’s grandfather, Arthur DiSabatino, in 1908. Anthony DiSabatino, Larry’s father, continued the family building tradition as part of DiSabatino and Raniere Construction Company, which also included Larry’s uncles, Fritz Raniere, Ernie DiSabatino and Artie DiSabatino. In April 1981, Larry founded DiSabatino Construction Company, carrying on the family’s role in construction and related services for the Delaware community and continuing to serve such customers as the DuPont Company and AstraZeneca. Presently, Larry’s sons, Michael, Jeffrey, and Kevin, who represent the fifth generation of DiSabatino’s working in the Delaware construction industry, work for the company. Larry’s cousins, E. Andrew Jr, Richard Jr, Brian, E. Andrew III, and Adam DiSabatino, lead EDIS, another construction organization in the region.
DiSabatino Construction has received many accolades over the years. Most recently, in 2009 and 2010, DiSabatino Construction received the News Journal’s Readers’ Choice Award for Builder and Developer of the Year. DiSabatino has also been recognized as a Superstar in Business by the Delaware State Chamber of Commerce and has won numerous local and national safety, quality, and community service awards. In 2005, Larry DiSabatino was recognized as Entrepreneur of the Year by the New Castle County Chamber of Commerce.
Community involvement is also an important aspect of the company, which has long supported such organizations as the American Cancer Society, the Delaware Community Foundation, the Wellness Community, the Ministry of Caring, Little Sisters of the Poor and the American Heart Association.
DiSabatino Construction appreciates the support of its friends, employees, customers and colleagues and is looking forward to many more years of serving the community.
