Success in business often comes down to two things: vision and execution. For Design Build Tex LLC, it’s also about legacy. Founded by father-and-son duo Demetrius and Gabriel Goins, this growing technology company is proof that when experience meets fresh perspective, real momentum follows.

Design Build Tex LLC wasn’t created overnight. It was built through trust, grit, and a shared commitment to something bigger than individual success. What began as a hands-on venture quickly evolved into a company with a clear direction and long-term ambition: to grow sustainably while creating opportunities for others.

With support from the Texas State University Small Business Development Center (SBDC), the Goins team took intentional steps to level up their business. Through expert advising, they were able to:

  • Refine their financial strategy
  • Strengthen operational systems
  • Build a scalable foundation for growth

This wasn’t just about short-term gains. It was about setting the business up to thrive for years to come. Today, Design Build Tex LLC stands as a thriving company making a tangible impact. Their growth has led to:

  • The creation of 15 full-time jobs
  • Increased revenue and capital
  • A stronger position for long-term expansion

More importantly, they’re building something that extends beyond business success - a pathway for the next generation. What sets Design Build Tex apart is the balance between experience and innovation. Demetrius brings seasoned insight, while Gabriel contributes a forward-thinking approach, and together they're creating a dynamic that fuels both stability and growth.

Their journey highlights a bigger truth: family businesses, when supported with the right resources and strategy, can become powerful drivers of economic impact.
