in Wichita, KS, USA, the company was founded in 1973 by Stephen M. Jordan under
the name Jordan Supply Co. The first contracts the company landed were with Sears
& Roebuck and Wicks Lumber Co. to install storm windows and doors. The company
started advertising to include home improvement sales in the fall of 1974. Continuing
with the storm windows and doors market, steel and vinyl siding, guttering, roofing
and other exterior improvements were soon added to the company's services. During
these early years the owner worked full time for the Wichita City Fire Department
and managed the company's sales and growth during his free time. The
oil embargo and energy crisis in the fall of 1975 created a national emergency.
Additional insulation contractors were needed to aid in energy conservation. Insulation
was an important addition to the company, giving it balance, secure growth, and
a large customer base. Winning large government insulation contracts accelerated
the growth of Jordan Siding & Insulation Co. The
company incorporated its new name, Jordan Building Company, Inc. in 1983 and demonstrated
its ability to take on more sizeable jobs such as gazebos, decks, and room additions
while still maintaining solid growth in the vinyl siding, insulation and window/door
replacement industry. The expiration of the "Energy Tax Credits"
caused the consumer insulation market to almost completely evaporate. To offset
this decline, the company's main focus shifted to the new home insulation market
-- building a core of repeat customers. Department managers David Jordan and Steve
Jordan Jr. have shown exceptional talent in helping builders build
green with high-performance cellulose spray insulation. Jordan Companies,
Inc. is proud of the relationships it has built and sustained with local area
builders and general contractors. In May of 2002, a major reorganization
of Jordan Building Company, Inc. took place. In order to more fully concentrate
on material sales to area contractors, the retail home improvement portion of
the company was sold. The new, reorganized company name is Jordan Companies, Inc.,
operating under the trade names of Jordan Wholesale
(material sales) and Jordan Spray Insulation
(installed insulation). In 2007, CertainTeed WeatherBoards fiber
cement siding was introduced. The main focus of Jordan Companies, Inc.
has always been, and still remains, to provide quality, affordable materials and
service to all of our customers.
