From Gooding, Simpson & Mackes to GSM Industrial—a Story Spanning More than Seven Decades
Gooding, Simpson & Mackes, Inc. was born more than sixty years ago. Twenty years later, GSM Industrial emerged as the choice industrial service for contracted millwright services, custom metal fabrication and welding, industrial ductwork, heavy plate fabrication, structural steel, field installation, mechanical contracting, and more.
What that means for you is a team that not only takes partnership in your project seriously, but that accepts the most challenging of jobs—with in-house fabricators and field installers who are capable, experienced, safe, and who get it done right and on time, every time.
Our History is Rich with Family, Excellence, and Unrivaled Service
Our industrial operation’s roots go back to 1946, when Fred Gooding first realized his dream of starting a roofing company. Soon after, Bill Simpson, then Fritz Mackes, joined him to establish what would eventually be known as Gooding, Simpson & Mackes, Inc. Fritz managed a division of the company until he passed away in 1974.
Jim Towers took over as head of that division, which steadily grew to become GSM Industrial in 1983.
It’s now its own entity that continues to expand its field installation and metal fabrication teams to take on any size challenge.
