In 1919, J.L. Anderson – using traditional beehive kilns and an adjacent railway line in the Great Pee Dee River valley – founded a brick company in upper South Carolina with a focus on making a quality product at a fair price. He not only set the tone for operations at Palmetto Brick, but also for four generations of the Anderson family, who have directed the company as master craftsmen ever since.

Today, Palmetto Brick is the largest family-owned brick maker in South Carolina, producing more than 150 million brick per year, and remains one of only a handful of American-owned and operated brick manufacturers in the U.S.
