Martin Marietta Materials (symbol: MLM) primarily sells its products to other companies, operating in a business-to-business (B2B) model. Its products, which include aggregates (crushed stone, sand, gravel), cement, asphalt, and ready mixed concrete, are fundamental inputs for large-scale construction and infrastructure projects.

Given the nature of its industry and customer base, Martin Marietta Materials typically does not have any single customer that accounts for 10% or more of its consolidated net sales in a given year, as disclosed in its public filings. This indicates a highly fragmented customer base rather than reliance on a few major purchasers. Therefore, it is not possible to list specific major customer companies by name or stock symbol.

Instead, its customer base can be described by the types of businesses and projects they undertake. The major categories of customers served by Martin Marietta Materials include:

1. Infrastructure and Public Works Contractors: These companies specialize in large-scale, often government-funded projects such crucial for maintaining and expanding public infrastructure. This includes contractors involved in building and repairing highways, bridges, airports, dams, ports, and other essential public facilities. While the ultimate client is frequently a state Department of Transportation (DOT) or another governmental agency, MLM sells directly to the contractors performing the construction work.
2. Commercial and Industrial Construction Companies: This category encompasses firms engaged in the construction of non-residential structures. Examples include office buildings, retail centers, shopping malls, warehouses, industrial plants, factories, hospitals, schools, and other institutional or commercial facilities.
3. Residential Construction Companies: These customers include land developers and homebuilders who are responsible for constructing single-family homes, multi-family housing units (such as apartments and condominiums), and entire residential subdivisions.

• Disciplined Pricing Strategy: Martin Marietta Materials anticipates continued revenue growth through its disciplined pricing strategy for its aggregates business. The company's Q3 2025 results showed an 8% increase in the average selling price per ton for aggregates, and management expects mid-single-digit pricing gains for 2026. This focus on value over volume is a key component of its commercial strategy and is expected to drive expanded price/cost spreads and improved unit profitability.
• Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA): Significant infrastructure spending from the U.S. government's IIJA is a substantial tailwind for Martin Marietta Materials. With over 50% of highway and bridge funding from the five-year IIJA program remaining to be spent as of late 2025, the company expects a robust multi-year demand outlook for its aggregates products.
• Strategic Acquisitions and Geographic Market Expansion: The company's SOAR (Strategic Operating Analysis and Review) plan emphasizes disciplined mergers and acquisitions (M&A) to expand its footprint in high-growth markets, particularly in the Southeast and Southwest U.S. A notable example is the strategic asset swap with QUIKRETE Holdings, anticipated to close in Q4 2025, which will enhance Martin Marietta's aggregates platform by adding operations producing approximately 20 million tons annually. Recent bolt-on acquisitions in South Florida and Southern California in late 2024 also reflect this strategy to strengthen reserves and broaden geographic reach.
• Recovery in Residential Construction and Strong Nonresidential Demand: Beyond public infrastructure, Martin Marietta expects an eventual recovery in residential construction, driven by decreasing mortgage rates. Additionally, solid heavy nonresidential construction, particularly from accelerating data center development, is projected to contribute to future demand for its materials.
• Growth in Specialties Business: The company's Specialties business (formerly Magnesia Specialties) is expected to continue its growth trajectory. Driven by higher pricing, increased shipments, and contributions from recent acquisitions such as Premier Magnesia, LLC (acquired July 2025), this segment delivered record quarterly revenues and gross profit in Q3 2025.

• On August 3, 2025, Martin Marietta entered into an asset exchange agreement with Quikrete Holdings, Inc., where Martin Marietta will receive aggregates operations producing approximately 20 million tons annually in Virginia, Missouri, Kansas, and Vancouver, British Columbia, plus cash proceeds, in exchange for its Midlothian cement plant and certain Texas ready-mixed concrete assets; this transaction is expected to close in Q1 2026.
