Gilk Announces National Expansion and Rebrand With Two Former NFL Athletes at the Helm

Gilk, previously known as HGC Design Build, has embarked on a national expansion, marking a new era in its journey. Specializing in real estate development, including new construction, community development, land acquisition, and commercial space revitalization, Gilk aims to create sustainable communities with a sense of purpose. The company's mission, "Building Dreams, Transforming Lives," underlines its commitment to transforming communities through development projects.

Co-founded by former NFL athletes Ryan Jensen and Garrett Gilkey, Gilk is headquartered in Tampa and is expanding its operations across the United States. This expansion includes projects like a 600-acre custom home community in Colorado. Jensen and Gilkey’s transition from the NFL to real estate reflects their commitment to leveraging their teamwork, dedication, and leadership skills in creating impactful spaces.

Ryan Jensen, known for his role in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' Super Bowl victory, recently retired from the NFL to join Gilk full-time. Together with Gilkey, he plans to apply the lessons learned on the field to the real estate industry, emphasizing trust, transparency, and community enrichment. This move is seen as a significant step towards achieving Gilk’s vision of building dream communities throughout the country.
