Founded in 1975, the company’s roots were planted in the small town of Cottonport in Avoyelles Parish, when founder Tim Lemoine carved out some space in the back of his father’s lumberyard and retail hardware store for the first office. Tim was joined a few years later by his younger brother and current CEO Leonard “Lenny” Lemoine. The early years, Lenny says, were spent learning how to build the business, learning best practices, and building relationships with customers. By 1985, LEMOINE had carved out a regional market from San Antonio to Atlanta, establishing the foundation of the company that currently exists today.
When Tim exited the business in 2000, LEMOINE reevaluated its strategy, placing a stronger emphasis on specialized markets like healthcare, which require unique construction services, all while fostering a people-centric, continuous improvement culture.
“We wanted to be more focused on growing and developing people,” Lemoine says. “We felt like those people could then develop better relationships with the customers and design firms they worked with, and that the wheel would begin to self-generate.”
