Porter International Construction, LLC Prides Itself on Being Able to Get Projects Done On Time and Under Budget

  Porter International Construction, LLC is a minority owned Construction Management and General Contracting firm that is quickly becoming a leader in their industry through innovative concepts and building solutions. Their World Headquarters located in Porter TX, illustrates their ability to empower visions. Founder and CEO, Mr. Vernon Smith developed and designed this multi-level compound over 15 years ago and has not slowed down. He continues to expand his horizon of business, establishing invaluable relationships all over the World. Smith’s innate ability to “design-build” comes from a long line of contractors. He showed an ability to take on massive construction projects at a very young age.

Smith smiles while telling stories about his father and uncles bringing him on jobsites and showing him the ropes from the time he could walk. At the tender age of 17-years old, Vernon was already running numerous projects while still maintaining his studies. He would go on to receive a degree in Engineering from Georgia Tech, started his legacy, and today he’s proud to say that he’s continuing the family tradition.

Mr. Smith recently returned from Nigeria where he closed several deals for residential and commercial development near Lagos. “We wish to build and help develop all over Africa; our mission’s not just go make money but help the people,” says Smith.

 “I’m excited about the fact that God positioned us to be able to go back to the mother land and offer training to the communities giving them tools they’ll have for life.”

Mr. Smith has a vision that involves him spreading wealth and education around the globe. He plans to explore another opportunity in Belize soon, he says. “We have been interested in Belize for a while; they are our beautiful brothers and sisters.”

Mr. Smith’s motto of getting the job done on time and under budget follows him around the World. “With God’s blessing we’ll go anyplace, any time.”

Mr. Smith has also ventured into the world of Finance by opening Porter Financial Group, and is now tackling renewable energy. “As long as I follow God's footsteps we will continue to prosper," he says.
