about us
Value-Driven, Family-Owned and Operated
First Companies is a second-generation, family-owned business that has been rooted in the West Michigan community for more than 55 years. CEO Jeff Baker and President Craig Baker grew up watching their father expand First Companies from a small real estate firm to a 4-in-1 construction, real estate, development, and property management company. Their projects speak to the values the family-owned organization has long-committed to: community, local investment, and buildings that foster connection.
