T.R.Hughes Inc.
Thomas R. Hughes
After 21 years with the St. Charles Police Department, Tom Hughes
left to start a homebuilding company. His primary purpose was to
develop land and provide high quality residential housing for the
St. Charles area. In 1993, he used credit cards for a down payment
on 77 acres of land in O'Fallon, Mo., and built a successful 250-house
residential community called Stable Ridge Estates.
In operation just eight years, his company has built everything
from affordable homes for first-time buyers, to elegant move-up
homes, as well as custom homes, condominiums, and office buildings.
With a focus on customer satisfaction and word-of-mouth advertising,
T.R. Hughes has increased its revenue by 25 percent over the last
two years. The company had 2000 net annual sales of more than $23.5
million. His company also ranked 178 on Inc. magazine's list of
fastest growing companies.
Hughes has
several projects that have recently been completed or are nearing
completion including two award-winning master-planned communities
in the St. Charles and St. Peters areas. He also is helping to
underwrite the new ballpark for the River City Rascals in St.
Charles.
