General Contractor
Since its inception more than 50 years ago, Landis Construction has been managed under the leadership of the Landis family:
1956 – 1976 Fred Landis, founder & President
1976 – 1987 Evelyn Landis Christman, Chairman of the Board
1980 – present Jim Landis, President & CEO
Fred and Evelyn Landis, natives of Pittsburgh, PA and Birmingham, AL respectively, settled in New Orleans after Mr. Landis’ World War II service with the U.S. Corp of Engineers. Mr. Landis began working in construction for Keller Construction Co. before deciding after a few years to start his own general contracting company.
In 1956, Fred Landis founded Landis Construction. At the age of fourteen, Jim Landis began learning his father’s trade as he worked digging ditches and carrying lumber. Following the death of Fred Landis in 1976, his widow Evelyn Landis preserved the family leadership of the company by becoming Chairman of the Board and in 1980, young Jim Landis took over as President.
Having overcome many challenges, Landis Construction has now become Landis Construction Co., LLC and an $80 million company with over 90 full-time employees. Landis has an impressive resume of completed projects including the Harrah’s New Orleans Casino, various Xavier University buildings, and many school and healthcare projects.
Much of Landis’ success has come through sacrifice, hard work, and the dedication of our employees to our clients, subcontractors and other associates in New Orleans and southeast Louisiana building community.
“We build our business by building lasting relationships.”
Since its founding, Landis has expanded its ability to deliver quality buildings not only through construction itself but also by utilizing construction management and design-build concepts. Landis takes pride in delivering projects at a standard that exceeds the expectations of our clients.
Many of Landis’ current leaders began their careers under the guidance of Fred Landis. Together they emulate the integrity and values of the culture created by the company’s founder and family.
