In 2018, Jerry officially turned the company over to his son Jay
Fields, who came up in the business gaining valuable knowledge
through years of commercial sales and operations. Under Jay’s
leadership, JD Fields has evolved from a conventional distribution
company into manufacturing and production. In addition to its
path to vertical integration with production of rolled and welded
casing as well as pipe and structural fabrication, JD Fields is breaking
ground in Houston on a new state-of-the-art spiral weld pipe
mill that will produce unique heavy wall structural pipe to serve
DOT highway, USACE marine, and private port/civil sectors.
With 120 years of combined experience, the Fields and Alameda
Companies have each earned their reputations in the industry as
high-quality steel suppliers and manufacturers, respectively, by
investing in industry experts with unique skillsets. The merger will
only drive value to their new and existing customers in the steel, oil
and gas, infrastructure and transportation industries with diversified
construction products and oilfield service divisions as well as
combined financial and human resources.
The merged entity will continue operating privately as one of
the leanest and highest revenue per employee distributors, fabricators
and manufacturing companies in the industry. Chris Risso,
the former president of Alameda, will join JD Fields as senior vice
president of regional sales. Risso will work in tandem with the
company’s highly specialized and technically versed sales income
producers who will continue managing their own divisions.
This acquisition is the start of the professed goal of the Fields
Companies to be one of the top material resources in the world
for domestic and international infrastructure projects.
