The Scruggs Company - Background

The Scruggs Company was incorporated in 1965 in the State of Georgia. Brothers Kenny and Ferrell Scruggs were principals in the new business that was actually an extension of the concrete/masonry sand business started earlier by their father, Mr. Fred Scruggs. The business grew to include concrete plants, asphalt plants, sand plants and a considerable volume of highway/sitework contracting work.

In 1981 the operations were split into two separate businesses. Ferrell Scruggs Sr. would be the principal of The Scruggs Company which would keep its focus on contracting work (including asphalt plant-mix production) and on the on-going sand plant operations. Kenny Scruggs would be the principal of a new corporation called Scruggs Concrete; its focus would be on concrete ready-mix as well as block and the building materials.

Ferrell Scruggs Jr. was made president of The Scruggs Company in 1996. Under his leadership, the company has continued to grow and experience success.  Currently, permanent asphalt plant-mix facilities are established in Valdosta, Thomasville and Lenox; permanent sand plant operations are located in Cook County and Montgomery County. In addition to the South Georgia/North Florida business, the geographic work area for construction projects has expanded to include all of the Southeastern United States with heavy concrete paving projects having been completed in locations as far west as Shreveport, Louisiana and as far north as Cherry Point, North Carolina.
