With 70 percent of its revenue coming from repeat business, it's little wonder New South Construction Co. Inc. is one of the fastest-growing businesses in town. With revenue figures like these -- $89 million in 2005, $150 million in 2006 and $160 million in 2007 -- that's a lot of happy customers. New South has expertise in a wide range of projects, including special-use facilities, industrial buildings, aviation buildings and criminal justice buildings to name a few. With so many areas to cover, New South has had to be careful in its growth, said Douglas C. Davidson, CEO of New South Construction. "Our plan for staying at the top and continuing the growth of New South Construction is to continue taking all steps necessary to ensure that the projects we are involved in are extremely successful and clients are completely satisfied with the end results," Davidson said. "We will also continue to properly reward and recognize our employees and their role in New South Construction Company's success."
