    Started a Asphalt company

    HI i have a few questions, im 20 and i started a asphalt construction company. I'm located in Chicago so its seasonal here. I have all the equipment, Trucks pavers an rollers and also a big ad in the yellowpages but my question is it the asphalt business still in demand due to a slow moving economy?

    dunno...call up your local and ask if there's been a slow down in development approvals (or public works)

    There is a slowdown, look around. But if you're able to hang in there (I don't know how long), everything will return and bigger and better than ever. Good luck.
