BOSTON – October 10, 2025 Kaplan Construction, a WBE general contractor and construction management firm providing comprehensive building programs across Greater Boston, announced today it has been named to  the annual list of the Largest Family-Owned Businesses in Massachusetts published by the Boston Business Journal (BBJ) for the fourth time. This list includes Massachusetts-headquartered companies that are owned, 51 percent or more, by two or more family members or married partners.

Founded in 1976, Kaplan Construction’s experienced staff has worked together for decades, building a strong portfolio of renovation and new construction projects for commercial, healthcare, multi-family, and worship clients. In 2014, Kaplan completed a three-year management transition during which Jane Kaplan Peck became chief operating officer (COO) and majority owner, and Nathan Peck assumed the role of president – positions they continue to hold today.

  • Nearly five decades after our founding, we’re proud to remain a family-run business rooted in trust, stability, and longevity. Family ownership is our greatest asset, and we’re honored to be recognized for it by the BBJ.
