The St. Joe Company (NYSE: JOE) is a Florida-based real estate development firm focused on master-planned communities, mixed-use developments and hospitality offerings. The company’s portfolio includes residential neighborhoods, boutique hotels, retail centers and recreational amenities designed to complement the natural landscapes of the Gulf Coast. St. Joe’s operations span the full development spectrum, from land planning and infrastructure to asset management and property sales.
Originally established in 1936 by Alfred I. du Pont as a paper and pulp enterprise, the company amassed vast timberland holdings across Northwest Florida. In the early 2000s, St. Joe began a strategic transformation, divesting paper operations and refocusing on real estate development. This pivot led to the creation of iconic communities such as Watersound Beach, WaterColor and WindMark Beach, which showcase the firm’s emphasis on coastal living and environmental stewardship.
St. Joe’s primary geographic footprint centers on Bay County and surrounding coastal counties in Northwest Florida. Beyond residential and resort development, the company partners with local governments and institutions to enhance regional infrastructure, including transportation improvements and community recreational facilities. Their approach seeks to balance growth with conservation, often integrating green space, trails and waterfront access into each project.
The enterprise is guided by a board of directors and an executive leadership team with deep experience in land management, hospitality and urban planning. Led by the president and chief executive officer, the management team advances a vision of sustainable growth, community engagement and long-term value creation. Through strategic partnerships and disciplined land development, St. Joe continues to shape the Gulf Coast’s built environment.
