OUR LEADERSHIP MARCUS' BIO BO'S BIO TRAVIS' BIO BARRY'S BIO DEREK'S BIO LEIGH'S BIO OUR HISTORY Brevard Myers Founded in 1953 by Brevard Myers and John Chapman, Myers & Chapman is a Charlotte-NC based, full service commercial construction company. John Chapman For 67 years, we have been building a solid reputation and iconic structures all over the region, but not without some challenges along the way. Through changes in ownership and leadership to the great recession, we have rallied and rebounded, always staying true to our core values. Our first three decades in business, we focused on smaller jobs and dominated the retail sector. During this period, we delivered some Charlotte landmark buildings such as the Mutual Savings and Loan Building at the corner of South Tryon and MLK (now home to the Charlotte Regional Business Alliance) and Quail Corners Shopping Center. By 1986, we had grown to a $25 million company and attracted the attention of an unusual investor. McCormick & Company (spice and packaged food) acquired Myers & Chapman that year but just two years later decided construction was not an industry they should be in and sold it to five members of the management team. In 1990, that group decided to liquidate assets and close the doors. Luckily, Mike North, a former project manager and VP for Brevard Myers and John Chapman, who had left to start his own construction company, Windsor Construction, stepped in. He purchased Myers & Chapman, merged it with Windsor and refocused the business strategy back to what had made Myers & Chapman successful during the first 30 years… relationships. After 14 years, North wanted to pursue other interests and in 2004 sold the Company to 12 employees including then President Rick Handford and CEO Bob Webb. This proved to be the right leadership formula and by 2008, Myers & Chapman had become a nearly $100 million company working primarily in the office, industrial and retail sectors. Then, of course, there was the recession, with a handful of tough years that included staff cuts, but we survived. Business really began to pick up in 2011 when we won a couple of major projects in the industrial and public sectors. In 2013, Webb and Handford started a succession plan for the Company’s next transition. A group of six employees were identified as the next generation of leadership and ownership for Myers & Chapman. In 2015, a phased transfer of ownership began and in 2017, SVP of Operations/10-year Company employee, Marcus Rabun, became CEO. Bob Webb became Chairman of the Board and Rick Handford remained President until 2018, when he transitioned to the role of Treasurer and Board Director. Today, the Company is exceeding pre-recession revenues with exciting projects underway. The company that started as a local, retail-driven general contractor has become a major regional player in the office, industrial, and medical categories.
