Twin brothers, Jonathan and Jarrett Logan, founded their construction company in 2005 in Memphis, Tennessee with the hope of making it a success. Since then, the company has tripled its size, built a clientele, created a database of over 100 subcontractors and have projects in Mississippi and Arkansas.
This year the Logan brothers are on track to bring in $4.5 million in revenue this year. "Being a minority contractor, let’s just be honest, we’re at a disadvantage," Jarett told Moxye. "...Financially, we have to be bankable to bankroll projects... And it’s harder for minority companies to prove ourselves with clients and financial institutions."

Castle Black Construction has worked with high-profile clients like St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and Panda Express. The company provides a wide array of "services that include the ability to manage any project from its inception to completion; including any combination of services our customers need to ensure the construction cycle is complete on time and within budget," according to their website.

In their 12 years of business, the Logans have become the largest minority contractor in the city and the one company capable of competing with bigger companies.

In the Silver Lining
Just heard that a black owned construction firm based in Port Arthur, TX just recently completed a bridge project in the state. What is significant about it is that it is the first time a black owned company was the lead firm in a bridge construction project in Texas since TxDOT has existed.
