LB Smith Employee Directory

Smith Land & Improvement Corporation is the corporate umbrella under which all activities collectively designated "L.B. Smith" operate. These enterprises of construction equipment and quarry machinery, automobile dealerships, real estate development, and nonprofit foundations reflect the style of both their founder and successive managements. Luthe... r B. Smith ("LB" to those who knew him) endowed his businesses with superior leadership principles that endure today. Prudent management, diligence in customer care, and insistence on strong financial reserves are the constants that are just as valid today as they were three quarters of a century ago. These guidelines kept LB's businesses-and there were many over the years-on solid ground. They also provided the sensible framework to which present management-now in its third generation-adheres. R.E. Jordan II became Chairman and CEO in 1992, succeeding his father, R.E. Jordan, who led the company after LB's passing in 1968. The officers and directors are optimistic about the company's future primarily due to our employees' industry and skills. Thanks to their efforts, we are confident that the company can continue its fine record of achievement, unbroken since 1918. Our appreciation extends to the companies whose product lines L.B. Smith represents and to suppliers and financial institutions for their faith and support as well. For those who have not experienced the spirit of Lasting Bonafide Service, we invite your attention. We welcome your comments or questions.Read More
