Last Updated: October 1, 2026By Tags:

Figures Construction & Development, Inc. has been named the Mobile Chamber’s Small Business of the Month, recognizing more than 35 years of quality construction, thoughtful development and commitment to creating opportunities throughout the Mobile community.

Founded in 1989 by Norman Figures, Figures Construction & Development began as a roofing contractor built on integrity, hard work, quality craftsmanship and service to the community. From the beginning, Norman Figures envisioned a generational business that would create opportunities extending beyond his own generation. He prepared his son, Rashawn Figures, to carry that vision forward and lead the company following his graduation from the University of Alabama.

Today, Figures Construction & Development has grown from its roofing roots into a diversified general contracting and development firm. The company’s capabilities include roofing, vertical construction and renovation, plumbing and utility infrastructure, aviation construction, heavy civil work and engineering. Figures Construction & Development is also a co-owner of Alabama’s first minority-owned concrete plant.

Under the leadership of Rashawn Figures, the company remains grounded in the values established by his father while continuing to expand its capabilities and impact. Figures Construction & Development approaches each project with a focus on communication, accountability, responsiveness and quality. The team works closely with clients to understand their goals, budgets, schedules and expectations, maintaining regular communication throughout the construction process and addressing concerns promptly.

As a proud member of the Mobile Chamber, Figures Construction & Development actively engages with local businesses, civic leaders and community organizations. Through its Chamber involvement, the company supports initiatives focused on economic development, responsible growth and expanded opportunities for small and minority-owned businesses.

Community investment is also reflected in the company’s work. Figures Construction & Development prioritizes local hiring and subcontracting, creates opportunities for minority- and disadvantaged-owned businesses and supports workforce development. Through its construction and development projects, the company works to create housing, jobs and opportunities that contribute to neighborhood revitalization and long-term economic growth.

By building with integrity and developing with purpose, Figures Construction & Development demonstrates its commitment to creating lasting value for the communities it serves. More than 35 years after Norman Figures founded the company, the Figures family continues to build on that foundation while creating a legacy designed to endure for generations.

Congratulations to Figures Construction & Development, Inc., the Mobile Chamber’s Small Business of the Month.
