Heart Wood is Warren County Business of the Year

Heart Wood Products was honored as Business of the Year during the recent Warren County Chamber Banquet.
Josh Stephens, managing partner at Heart Wood Products, said the company and its employees were honored to receive the award.
"We were very honored to be chosen as Business of the Year," Stephens said.  "We love it here.  We don't plan to go anywhere.  We plan to keep growing."  
Starting with about 10 employees in 2019, the company employs 70 people that reside primarily in Warren, Hancock, McDuffie, and Glascock Counties.  "We operate two shifts,  Monday through Friday," Stephens said.  "We build 30,000 pallets per week.  We ship roughly 50 truck-loads of pallets weekly."
The managing partners said they chose Warren County because of the workforce, the facility that they found, and because Warren County is easy to do business with.  The company's leadership team noted that O.B. McCorkle and John Graham have helped Heart Wood Products throughout their local development.  Stephens said they plan to continue Heart Wood's growth.
