In 1968, Francesco & Luigi Savone, two brothers from Italy, migrated to the United States to achieve their own American dream. At a young age, Francesco apprenticed to learn welding and how to finish concrete. Luigi soon joined his older brother and together they perfected the fine trade of laying concrete and building brick.

In the mid 1980s, Francesco & Luigi decided to start a part-time cement-laying business. They both committed their own money and devoted all the time they had apart from their growing families and full time jobs in the auto and steel industry. As word of their impeccable service travelled throughout the downriver area, their business began to grow and Savone Cement was born.

Today, Savone Cement is owned and operated by Luigi\'s eldest son, Mario Savone. As president of the company, Mario has expanded the business and Savone Cement continues to exceed the bar in a strong work ethic and pride in a job well done originally set by Francesco & Luigi.

Savone Cement is dedicated to maintaining family tradition, hard work and customer satisfaction with heart and pride on behalf of the late Francesco & Luigi Savone.
