Landmark Construction Co., a family-owned civil construction company in Charleston, South Carolina, has recently undergone a significant leadership change. Effective February 1st, Anthony M. Garcia assumed the role of president and CEO, succeeding Rick Mixson who had led the company for over two decades. Garcia brings extensive experience from his previous position as COO at Landmark and prior roles at Rogers Group, where he focused on strategic initiatives and business expansion. The transition marks a new chapter for the company while maintaining family ownership with Rick and Cindy Mixson serving as chairman and co-chairman of the board.
Garcia's tenure as COO was marked by notable achievements in driving the company's strategic direction. During his time in this role, he played a crucial part in enhancing business operations and delivering strong financial outcomes. His efforts were instrumental in positioning Landmark Construction for future growth. With a career history rooted in the construction industry, Garcia’s expertise spans various facets of civil engineering and infrastructure development. His work at Rogers Group, a prominent aggregates and asphalt highway construction firm based in Nashville, provided him with invaluable insights into operational efficiency and market trends.
The leadership shift comes after nearly three decades of Rick Mixson's stewardship. Under Mixson’s guidance, Landmark Construction grew significantly, becoming a leading player in the Southeastern construction market. As the company moves forward under Garcia's leadership, it aims to further strengthen its customer relationships and expand its geographical reach. Landmark specializes in site preparation, utilities, concrete, industrial, and technology construction projects, primarily serving clients across South Carolina and neighboring states.
Mixson expressed confidence in Garcia's ability to lead the company with vision and integrity. The transition ensures continuity in leadership while introducing fresh perspectives to propel the organization toward new milestones. Moving forward, Landmark Construction will continue to build upon its legacy of excellence, focusing on innovative solutions and expanding its service areas to meet growing demands in the region.
