DonahueFavret Contractors | Louisiana Commercial Construction

Company History

In 1979, John “Jack” Donahue, Jr. left his family’s construction firm to begin his own. Jack Donahue Contractors became DonahueFavret Contractors when Jack’s longtime friend Robert Favret joined in the company’s ownership.

Together, we have an effective management team combined with solid financial strength. Jack Donahue serves as the Chairman of the Board and John Donahue leads as the CEO and President. Jack’s wife, Maura Donahue, serves as Executive Vice President. Although Bob Favret passed away in 2010, his legacy remains a vital part of the company.

Today, we have grown to a company of more than 50 team members, serving clients throughout Louisiana and the Gulf South.

Matt Weeks, Max Ferran, Jack Donahue, Debbie Bogantes, Lauren Andrews, David Dupré, Bryan Hodnett, Maura Donahue, Patrick Descant and John Donahue serve as DonahueFavret’s leadership team. Our management team remains wholly committed to the region, serving as active members in local, regional and national organizations such as Associated Builders and Contractors, Louisiana Association of Business and Industry, and the United States Chamber of Commerce.

DonahueFavret was with us because they took ownership of the project. That’s the kind of commitment we saw from them time and time again. Even after the events of Hurricane Ida, they still made sure we stayed on schedule… because the patients were still going to come. They still came after the storm, and because of the DonahueFavret team, we were able to continue operations without skipping a beat.

DonahueFavret has proven repeatedly that a team effort produces the optimum outcome. From the early stages of the project, while developing scope and budgets, and implementation from field operations, and working closely with our team, we witnessed honesty and hard work culminate with a client’s jubilation of their vision come to life.

Your company demonstrated utmost professionalism and a true understanding of our mission. Because of your commitment, constructed would be completed in spite of our city enduring the largest disaster in American history (in response to Hurricane Katrina, 2006).
