Rolling Mix Concrete Stays True to Their Roots

Apr 16, 2018 | 8:00 AM

For more than 53 years, Rolling Mix Concrete has been a business that understands the value of family and community.

It all started in 1963 by “Rolling” Joe Paolucci. Joe began with just 2 cement mixers, a strong knowledge of concrete, and a handful of loyal customers. Fresh out of high school in 1986, Joe’s son John joined his father to follow in his dad’s footsteps. By 1999, the company had grown to include 6 cement mixers, 2 pump trucks, and a gravel truck. That same year, Rolling Mix Concrete suffered the loss of the company patriarch, “Rolling” Joe Paolucci. It was then that John, along with his brother-in-law, Dan Gialleonardo, took over company operations. After an unfortunate battle with cancer, Rolling Mix Concrete lost Dan in 2012. John continues as Company President to this day and the fleet has expanded to include 12 cement mixers, 4 pump trucks, 4 gravel trucks and the company now includes a multitude of products and services.

Rolling Mix Concrete has never forgotten their roots.

 “The past 53 years has seen Prince George grow and expand in all directions”, says company president John Paolucci, “from the booming 60s to the depression of the 80s, Rolling Mix has shared the trials and tribulations of our hometown. I plan to continue to involve Rolling Mix in this locality in our future endeavours and carry forward our commitment to lay a solid foundation in and around Prince George.”

Rolling Mix Concrete is proud to have been involved in the construction of many significant projects in our community. The University Hospital of Northern BC, the Prince George Court House, Parkwood Mall and CN Centre are just to name a few. There have been numerous charitable endeavours as well including our local racetrack, Nitro Motorsports Park. This racetrack features the Rolling Mix Concrete Raceway and the Danny G. Memorial Starting Line. The Rolling Mix Concrete Arena, formerly the Prince George Coliseum, is another charitable endeavour that the company is proud to be a part of.

Rolling Mix Concrete welcomes both large and small residential and commercial projects and provides professional, courteous and reliable service to their clients.   

Rolling Mix Concrete laid its foundation in Prince George with concrete services. They’ve come a long way since 1963 and now offer so much more! Their landscaping division includes topsoil, gravel, sandy loam, patio and hot tub foundations, and sand for playgrounds and sandboxes. They also create incredible ornamental concrete products to transform your garden landscape. From outdoor picnic tables, benches, and exposed aggregate planters to designer retaining wall blocks and decorative blue shale, Rolling Mix Concrete can beautify and define any residential or commercial space while also increasing property value.

John is thankful for his dedicated employees and is proud to be a part of Prince George and to carry the true Northern Spirit our community shares.
