Henok Tekeste founded Blue Nile Contractors in 2005, after graduating from Kansas State University
with a masters degree in engineering.

Since 2006, Municipalities and Contractors alike have been trusting Blue Nile Contractors to provide
them with peace of mind. Currently we are operating out of Kansas City, MO and performing a majority
of work in the Kansas City Metro area, looking to expand throughout the Midwest region.

Many companies are bypassing the “personal touch” by concentrating on web marketing and direct
marketing, but not Blue Nile. We know that our strength lies in the local, personalized relationships
between all of our clients. Our primary measurement of success is our client satisfaction. That client
satisfaction stems from completing our projects on time and under budget.

Blue Nile fully recognizes that our primary asset is our staff. We at Blue Nile provide opportunity and
encouragement to help all of our people to reach their highest potential. Our clients know that they will
get a team of highly motivated individuals that will ensure them that they will reach their goals.

Blue Nile remains true to its founding values of quality, honesty, and hard work. We are a business
based on trust, and we find ourselves doing the right thing. Blue Nile is consistently associated with the highest standards of service, quality, personal attention to clients, and integrity.

Blue Nile is a proactive company and will find helpful solutions to problems that are faced.

Blue Nile prides itself on bidding projects in an appropriate manner. We solicit bids from all contractors,
and will survey, strategize, and implement a plan for success so that very little surprises await us.

As you will discover Blue Nile is a “top tier” minority contractor specializing in civil construction
services.

Blue Nile Contractors, Inc. is a CERTIFED MBE/DBE contractor through the City of Kansas City, MO
as well as the State of Missouri, and the State of Kansas. We are fully insured, bonded, and capable of
performing on your next project.
