Montgomery, Alabama. December 2, 2025 - Jim Wilson & Associates, LLC (JWA), a family-owned investment and real estate development company, proudly celebrates its 50th anniversary, marking five decades of strategic growth, landmark developments, and a steadfast commitment to the communities it serves.
Founded in 1975 by Jim Wilson, Jr., JWA began with a bold vision: to create enduring value through thoughtful development, strong partnerships, and an unwavering belief in doing business the right way. Today, that vision continues through the leadership of Will Wilson and a dedicated team whose loyalty, expertise, and passion have shaped JWA’s success for half a century.
Over the past 50 years, JWA has played a transformative role in real estate development across the Southeast and beyond, leading major retail, mixed-use, commercial, and residential projects while expanding into private equity and strategic investment opportunities. From iconic developments to long-term capital management, JWA’s impact has been defined by innovation, integrity, and a deep commitment to meaningful relationships.
As part of this milestone, JWA is unveiling a refreshed brand identity, including a modern new logo, alongside the launch of a redesigned website,
www.jwacompanies.com. This rebranding reflects the company’s evolution, forward-looking vision, and continued dedication to innovation while honoring the legacy built over the past 50 years.
“As we celebrate 50 years, we reflect with gratitude on the many partners, employees, tenants, and communities who have been part of our journey,” said Will Wilson, President of Jim Wilson &
Associates. “Our success has always been rooted in the people around us, those who share our values, trust our leadership, and believe in the future we are building together.”
Throughout its anniversary year, JWA will highlight its history, honor long-serving employees, and reinforce its legacy of giving back. In 2026, the company will introduce a year-long community engagement and philanthropy calendar as part of its continuing commitment to service.
As JWA looks ahead, the company remains focused on sustainable growth, strategic opportunities, and developing projects that strengthen communities for the next generation.
“For 50 years, JWA has built more than properties, we’ve built relationships, opportunities, and a foundation for future success,” said Wilson. “Our new brand marks the next chapter in JWA’s story, and we’re excited for what the future holds.”
