JACKSONVILLE, FL - For the fourth time LandSouth Construction, a Jacksonville, Fla.-based general contractor specializing in multifamily, senior living and mixed-use developments, has been recognized as one of Florida’s Fastest Growing 100 Private Companies by the state’s Business Journals.
LandSouth moved up from No. 24 to No. 20 in 2017 and was one of only five Jacksonville companies that made the prestigious list and the only local general contractor.
The annual award rankings are viewed as a benchmark for success within the aggressive Florida business environment.
This latest honor caps another busy year for LandSouth. The recognition as one of the Fast 100 comes on the heels of recently being named one of Jacksonville’s 50 Fastest Growing Private Companies by the Jacksonville Business Journal, one of the nation’s top apartment builders by the National Multifamily Housing Council and one of the fastest growing private companies in the nation by Inc. Magazine.
“LandSouth is thrilled to be recognized for the fourth time as one of the fastest growing private companies in Florida and to have moved up the rankings this time around compared to last year. The improved ranking showcases our rapid and consistent growth, all due to the hard work and constant determination of our team,” said LandSouth President/CEO James Pyle.
LandSouth Construction is currently working on apartments, senior living and mixed-use developments throughout the Southeast including Indian Land, North Augusta, and Charleston, S.C., Chattanooga, Tenn., Gainesville, Boca Raton, Tampa, Bradenton, Kissimmee, Jacksonville, Sanford, ChampionsGate, Melbourne, Winter Springs, Port St. Lucie and Orlando Fla. and senior living developments in New Port Richey and Nocatee, Fla.
“It’s a testament to the hard work that our team puts forth every day in the field and in the office,” said Joe Passkiewicz, LandSouth’s Senior Vice President of Development. “We recognize our success is closely aligned with our partners and reflects the incredible commitment of our employees as well as the great confidence that our clients have shown in us.”
Business Journal researchers surveyed more than 900 businesses in Florida to determine which companies would make this year's list, which is based on the percentage of revenue growth. Because the list highlights fast growth, it is one of the most dynamic and respected lists published by the Business Journal each year.
To make the list, companies must have recorded revenue of at least $1 million and demonstrated revenue growth through 2017. Florida’s Business Journals are in South Florida, Orlando, Tampa and Jacksonville.
In addition, these firms must have been privately held during the reporting period. They must be headquartered in the state and cannot be subsidiaries of other companies. The chief executive officer or chief financial officer of each company must submit in writing — and personally vouch for — revenues.
Marking its 20th year, LandSouth Construction has completed more than 15,000 multifamily units, including apartments, senior living, condominiums, and townhomes. LandSouth uses its unique integrated construction approach where each service component works together to provide a seamless delivery system.
