Perlo Construction Expands to Tacoma: A New Chapter Begins

01/12/2026

We’re excited to share some great news: our new office in Tacoma, Washington, is now open! This milestone aligns with our 70th anniversary, a meaningful moment that reflects both our history and our future. Expanding into Tacoma strengthens our ability to serve clients across the Puget Sound region and deepens our roots in the Pacific Northwest.

A Natural Fit

For many years, Perlo has partnered on construction projects across Washington State, making a local presence in Tacoma a natural next step. This expansion strengthens the I‑5 connection between our Portland, OR headquarters and the greater Seattle metropolitan area, positioning Perlo to seamlessly serve the entire Western Washington corridor, from the Southwest to the Northwest regions, with the same consistency, responsiveness, and partnership‑focused service our clients rely on. Our President, Chris Gregg, shared, “This expansion shows our commitment to the local communities, as well as to our dedicated employees and clients.” Tacoma is a city on the rise, and we’re excited to invest in its growth and future.

Connecting with Our Washington Clients

A local office means we can respond quickly when our Puget Sound clients need us, tailor our services to the unique needs of the community and build meaningful face-to-face relationships. Spearheading this effort is Jordan Peterson as Director of Operations, a trusted Perlo leader known for his collaborative approach and passion for client success. Here’s what Jordan shared about the expansion:

“Tacoma is a community with incredible momentum, and we’re honored to be part of its growth. Being here allows us to strengthen partnerships, support local businesses, and deliver projects with the responsiveness and personal connection our clients deserve.”

Jordan’s leadership will be instrumental in strengthening our connections with local stakeholders, from developers and architects to subcontractors and community partners. His approach centers on collaboration, transparency, and a deep respect for the people behind every project. With him at the helm, we’re confident that our Tacoma office will become a trusted resource for clients across the region. Clients can expect the same craftsmanship, reliability, and partnership-focused service that have made Perlo a recognized leader in construction and an award-winning workplace. From industrial and manufacturing to self‑storage or retail sectors, our new office enables us to deliver projects with greater efficiency while building strong, lasting relationships.
