This week New Orleans City Business published a story on the gaining traction of permit expeditors in the New Orleans market. We were honored that they called us to discuss this exciting new market. The story by Jennifer Larino (which we will archive on this website soon) demonstrated a myriad of opinions about the expediting industry here in New Orleans and perhaps even what to expect from our allies in municipal governments. It also featured an opinion of a local contractor who admitted that outsourcing his permit acquistion time is absolutely beneficial. If you are a local contractor or designer: call us today, to find out how we can turn the permit process into a profit center for your business. 
May and June have brought us a number of issues for different clients having to do with VCC compliance in the French Quarter. We look at this work as not only an opportunity to help folks here in New Orleans, but also as enthusiastic participation in historic preservations.
Let Louisiana Expeditors help you with VCC permits. We have the expertise and time to tackle any Quarter permit, freeing you up to keep your focus where it belongs: On Your Project.
Louisiana Expeditors completed a project in April for Crocs at the very well-appointed Mall of Louisiana. The work consisted of obtaining and delivering an East Baton Rouge Parish Building General Work Permit, the State Fire Marshal P.O. Letter, and the St. George Fire District Approval Letter.
LAEX is proud to have Michael Kors as a repeat customer. Michael Kors opened their New Orleans store before the holiday season at the Shops at Canal Place and expect to open another fantastic shop in Lakeside Shopping Center before June 1, 2012. Louisiana Expeditors helped them acquire the Jefferson Parish Building Permit and the State Fire Marshal P.O.Letter.
