Our History
Premier Granite & Stone, founded in 2008 by David Bleyenberg and Matt VanTil, emerged when they seized the opportunity to acquire some equipment from their former employer, The Solid Choice. In a challenging economic climate, they utilized HELOC’s for their start-up and eventually obtained an SBA loan to purchase equipment and materials.
Their modest beginnings allowed them to prioritize attention to detail and deliver the high-quality products and exceptional customer service typically associated with small-town businesses. Striving to establish a reputation for future expansion, they focused on utilizing their talents in various capacities. Over time, Premier Granite & Stone built its identity on a values-driven approach encompassing all aspects of their operations, from their dedicated employees to their top-notch products and services. Their genuine passion for their work and commitment to ethical practices has laid the foundation for their current status as the foremost leader in countertop fabrication across West Michigan.
Dave and Matt’s partnership thrived due to their complementary skills and extensive expertise, enabling them to establish a respected enterprise in a thriving market. This venture not only provided them with a sense of fulfilling their calling as individuals, utilizing their God-given talents and abilities to support their families, but it also created numerous opportunities for employees to grow both personally and professionally, while also impacting their local communities on various levels.
