MH Williams Construction Group Transitions to Landry/French Construction

Melbourne-based construction company will officially adopt the Landry/French name on September 14, 2026

MELBOURNE, FL, UNITED STATES, September 14, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Melbourne, Florida — M.H. Williams Construction Group will officially transition to Landry/French Construction on September 14, 2026, bringing the company under the Landry/French name while maintaining its Melbourne office, local leadership, and commitment to clients throughout Florida.

M.H. Williams joined Landry/French on June 1, 2024. Since then, the Melbourne-based Space Coast team has continued serving Florida clients under the M.H. Williams brand while becoming part of the broader Landry/French organization. During that time, Landry/French has also expanded its Florida presence with an office in St. Petersburg, creating a stronger platform to serve clients across both Florida coasts.

The transition brings the two organizations together under one brand, while clients will continue working with the local professionals and project teams they know.

“Over the past two years, we’ve seen the strength of the M.H. Williams team and the relationships they’ve built in Florida,” said Kevin French, CEO of Landry/French Construction. “This is a natural next step. We’re bringing our organizations together under one name while continuing to provide our clients with the local experience and personal attention they value, backed by the broader resources of Landry/French. With offices in both Melbourne and St. Petersburg, we are well positioned to continue growing our presence and serving clients throughout Florida.”

 
Mike Williams, whose family name has been part of the company’s identity for decades, said he is proud of the team and excited about the company’s future.

“M.H. Williams has always been about its people, its clients, the community, and the relationships we’ve built over the years,” Williams said. “I’m proud of what the team has accomplished and excited about what’s ahead. The name may be changing, but our commitment to our clients and our community remains.”

For clients, the transition is designed to be seamless. The Melbourne office will remain in place, and the Florida team will continue providing the local expertise and responsive service clients have come to expect. Together with Landry/French’s St. Petersburg office, the company now has a growing presence on both Florida coasts, supported by the resources and capabilities of a 100% employee-owned organization.

Landry/French has more than 150 employees and approximately $350 million in annual construction volume, serving clients throughout the Northeast and Florida. With Florida offices in Melbourne and St. Petersburg, the company provides construction management, design-build, and general contracting services across healthcare, education, life sciences, commercial, aviation, housing, industrial, and research and development markets.

“We’re proud of the M.H. Williams legacy and excited about what comes next,” French said. “September 14 marks an important milestone, but it’s really the beginning of the next chapter for Landry/French in Florida.”
