Our Story
Holmes Equity is a family-owned, mission-driven holding company headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida.
Our chairman, Lockwood P. Holmes, grew a business alongside his father that he eventually purchased, grew exponentially, and sold. He turned his attention to something new, launching a concrete company which would eventually grow to the largest in the area and serve as a foundation for Holmes Equity.
To this day, Holmes Equity has continued to invest in and grow numerous companies and expand its impact through investing in ministries doing incredible work in communities near and far.
