RONALD C. WITT JR, PRESIDENT AND CEO OF SWEETWATER CONSTRUCTION CORP
“Sweetwater’s success is due to our skilled, loyal, and dedicated team members, as well as our devoted subcontractors and faithful clients. Without our partners, Sweetwater would not have evolved into the type of company we are today.” Our corporate culture of teamwork, integrity, pride, and accountability ensures our team members exceed project expectations, which benefits all project stakeholders,” said Ronald C. Witt, Jr., President and CEO of Sweetwater Construction Corp.
“I’m thrilled to support Ryan Ellis, the 43 team, and Alpha Prime Racing. Ryan embodies the core values at Sweetwater Construction, which makes this partnership easy. Seeing our logo on the 43 car is a dream come true, as my father and I have been longtime racing fans. I’m sure my father is looking down with a huge smile on his face!" said Witt, Jr.

RYAN ELLIS, DRIVER OF THE NO.43 SWEETWATER CONSTRUCTION CHEVY
“Bringing Sweetwater Construction into our sponsorship family is extremely exciting. Ron and I hit it off immediately, and we’re very proud that we get the opportunity to represent them through this partnership,” said Ryan Ellis, driver of the No.43 Sweetwater Construction Chevy. “Both Pocono and Bristol have always been two of my favorite tracks on the schedule - last year, we had one of the largest crowds I have seen for an Xfinity Series race at Pocono, and we all know just how big the crowd was at Bristol with Dale [Earnhardt] Jr racing. I hope we still carry the positive momentum in July and can carry the Sweetwater Construction colors to a solid top-20 or top-15 result.”
