What is the name of Ron Swanson's construction company in season seven?

The story behind the answer

Ron Swanson’s construction company in season seven is called the Very Good Building and Development Company.

The business is established after the series jumps forward three years into 2017. Ron has left his position as Pawnee’s parks director and started a private construction company, taking Donna and Tom into the business. Its name, “Very Good,” fits Ron’s preference for blunt, understated branding while reflecting his confidence in his own work.

The company becomes central to the season-seven conflict between Ron and Leslie. Very Good has demolished Ann Perkins’s former house to make room for an apartment building, helping trigger the pair’s bitter estrangement. Ron’s company also handles construction work for Gryzzl, the technology firm seeking to expand its presence in Pawnee.

The name is sometimes shortened to “Very Good” in episode descriptions, but the quiz’s stored answer gives the company’s full name. It should not be confused with Gryzzl Development Group or the nonexistent “Swanson Construction.”
