Our Journey

The Name's Origin

Originally founded by Skaggs, Smith & Brown, the company was sold to the Childers family in 1997. Our current owner, Jeremy Grisham, took over after working with the Childers for 16 years.

The Philosophy

"At the end of the day, all you have is your name," a wise adage passed down from former owner Mike Childers that still guides our business ethics today.
