FORD ELLIOTT

CONTENDER FOUNDER, CEO & CO-CHAIRMAN

Relationships are the Cornerstone to Success

So many things determine success: timing, expertise, skill, experience, market knowledge. But most of all, success lives and breathes on the relationships you establish. No matter how big the company or organization, it all comes down to working with people.

 

At Contender, we have been fortunate to work with the finest individuals and companies across a wide range of commercial industries, in South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida. At Contender, we partner with companies that share our integrity and commitment to create premier developments and businesses that we can be proud of collectively.

A Team You Can Trust

Ford’s mother once gave him some advice that remains close to his heart:

“Give your 100% best every day and you can achieve anything.”

That has served as a credo for Contender—and a core value that he has passed down to everyone in the company. He says: “We want to work with the best partners, hire the best people, and always do what we say we will do. Those three things have helped us grow and achieve the success we have today. They are the foundation of our business.”
