FORT WORTH, TX--(Marketwired - Apr 1, 2016) - UMED Holdings, Inc. (
Ransom B. Jones, UMED's current Interim Chief Executive Officer, age 67, has over 40 years of diverse business experience. He is a retired partner of KPMG Peat Marwick and former Chief Financial Officer of two publicly traded corporations, Western Preferred Corporation and El Paso Refining, Inc. He has also served as an officer of some of the largest and most prestigious global financial institutions including Goldman Sachs, Citicorp, ABN-AMRO Bank and AIG. After resigning from AIG, Mr. Jones created a very successful small business for life insurance lending. He graduated from the University of Texas at El Paso in 1971 with a BBA, Accounting. Ransom B. Jones and Kevin Jones are brothers.
Kevin Jones, age 51, founded All Commercial Floors in 1999 and is responsible for its overall operation. Under his leadership ACF has grown from a two-person business in the corner of his garage to one of the largest and, we feel, one of the most respected commercial flooring companies in the country with offices throughout the United States, and with annual sales exceeding $40 million. Today, ACF may well be considered the premier healthcare flooring contractor in the country, serving customers from Alaska to Florida, Maine to California and beyond. ACF has also spread beyond the healthcare sector with expansion into the general commercial flooring sector with offices in key U.S. markets. This has led to landmark projects at venues such as the Gaylord Texan, American Airlines Center, the University of Alabama and Cowboys Stadium. We believe that no other flooring contractor in the country has the ability to reach any corner of North American continent with the skill and success of ACF. He attended Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. Kevin Jones and Ransom B. Jones are brothers.
