BRIAN ORTIZ
This is our guiding philosphy. When you work with Nacional, you will feel an immediate difference by working with good people, who care. The most important thing that we build, is trust!
Nacional is the premier MBE Certified partner for the world’s most recognizable corporations.
Safety is more than a requirement; it’s a commitment that protects your investment and our teams. We operate with a simple rule: if a task can’t be performed safely, it won’t be performed at all.
This philosophy has guided our leadership through complex projects, where we’ve crafted safety programs that exceed the highest industry standards. By choosing Nacional, you’re partnering with a team where safety is interwoven into every aspect of our work, ensuring your project’s success and integrity.
In fact, our dedication to pioneering safety solutions led to the creation of Matador3. This division represents the forefront of safety innovation in the industry, setting new benchmarks for safe practices and project excellence.
The Ortiz family migrated to Chicago from Central Mexico, with the brothers eventually finding their path in the construction industry. Darrell Ortiz, one of the brothers, started a mechanical contracting business. His son, Brian Ortiz, became the first in the family to attend college, earning the prestigious President’s Award Scholarship to the University of Illinois.
After graduation, Brian joined his father’s seven-year-old business. Together, Darrell and Brian worked for ten years, primarily on governmental projects, growing their business into a company with a sterling reputation and recognition as the top-performing MBE in Chicago. However, the low bid and slow pay nature of public work led the company to close in 2005.
Brian, after a stint with a national industrial contractor, saw an opportunity for diverse companies to work for large corporations and founded his first business in 2010. The company’s focus was on identifying clients, not just projects, and building lasting relationships with corporate partners who valued partnership, good work, and customer service.
We have steadily grown our businesses to support more than 30 Fortune 500 clients. However, corporate America continually asks about our capabilities and the scale of projects we can handle. In response, we formed Nacional Group. Nacional is poised to become the nation’s premier building solutions provider, expanding its corporate business nationally through strategic office locations, mergers and acquisitions, and strategic alliances.
It has been reported that less than 1% of corporate spending in America goes to Hispanic-owned businesses. Despite there being over five million Hispanic-owned companies in the U.S., only a handful are billion-dollar businesses. Our focus is on quality service delivery and profitable growth with clients who value partnership over just low price. In doing so, we aim to continue building a company that provides opportunities for diverse individuals to change their lives for the better.
Let’s do something good.
We believe in the power of partnership, where mutual success fosters exceptional outcomes. Together, we can create not just successful projects but also life-changing opportunities for our suppliers, employees, and clients.
