Frana & Sons Frana Companies was founded by Gary Frana and incorporated in 1977. In 1983, Peter Donnino came to Frana Companies and is now CEO and Majority Owner of the company. Mike Benedict started with Frana Companies in 1995 as a project manager and is now the President and minority owner of the company. They all believed in creating innovative ways to deliver the highest possible quality at the lowest possible cost.

That's why, over the years, Frana has been selected to manage a wide variety of building projects that range from 15-story poured concrete condominium towers to 300-unit townhome communities to complex interior renovations.
Services
We believe that every project needs senior staff and that means our clients will never be saddled with inexperience. We have enjoyed almost zero staff turnover during the past 35+ years. The same project managers and superintendents are available to clients all throughout the project and even long after the project is completed.
Our people recognized a pressing need to stabilize what threatened to become constant increases in materials and labor costs. In early 2000 we opened the first pre-fabricated wall plant in the Midwest and have invested more than $2,000,000 in equipment for the more than 150 highly experienced, top quality carpenters we employ to work our crews.

I called and talked with someone who said that they would call me backing a day or two. A week later I called and the lady who answered the phone was rather rude and didn't seem like she wanted to help at all.

Update: Frana Companies has made a good faith effort to help me resolve a situation that resulted from a belligerent and violent sub contractor working in the vicinity of their job site. I deeply appreciate their help in making Minneapolis a safer place for everyone. I was attacked this morning by this worker at the 708 S 3rd St build site. His parked car was blocking the bike lane and when pointed that out he kicked me and then tried to intimidate me into leaving. He refused to identify himself or name his supervisor. A female worker was with the violent man, she was trying to downplay both his violent and illegal behaviors.
