As a privately held company, Northern Builders, Inc. distinguishes itself by using in-house development expertise to initiate and create aggressive and thoughtful deal structures. 

By providing a single source of accountability, Northern serves as one-stop shopping for our clients. Today, Northern continues to operate with the same hands-on approach, entrepreneurial spirit and personal commitment to excellence that was present when the company was founded in 1927.
Our development team is trained to handle site selection benefit analysis, zoning and annexation procedures, municipal incentive negotiations, entitlements, and real estate tax strategies. With several hundred acres of available land in our highly accessible business parks, we can find the right location for your new facility.

With over 90 years of construction and development experience in the Chicagoland market, we pride ourselves on surpassing our clients' expectations of timing, quality and performance. Our development team has the knowledge and experience to perform site selection benefit analysis, zoning and annexation procedures, municipal incentive negotiations, entitlements and real estate tax strategies.

Another benefit exclusive to Northern is the unique design-build process known as “Total Project Solutions”, or TPS. Every project implements the TPS process and focuses on teamwork and collaboration among our expert design professionals to achieve your specific design criteria, while closely monitoring up-front costs and long-term operational efficiencies.

As part of the Total Project Solutions process, Northern considers long-term functionality, energy efficiency, building reuse and sustainable environmental design solutions.
