OUR STORY

In 1968, Robert Waters (senior), a truck driver outside of Boston, decided to start his own pallet company. He noticed that there was money to be made off of
the pallets left on his truck after runs. New England Pallet Company was started in his garage. It didn’t take long for it to take off. The pallet company was
very successful and Robert brought his son, Robert, better known as Bob, in to work for him. Bob started working in pallets at age 13 and has been in the
business ever since.

In 1995, Bob moved his family to Canton, Georgia. He began to work for local businessman Robert McKinney at his roof and floor truss company,
Heritage Roof Truss. Robert learned of Bob’s background in pallets and decided to start Heritage Pallets, Inc. Bob earned his way to the
General Manager position in 2001 and has been there ever since, earning Bob over 45 years of industry experience.

Bob started bringing his eldest daughter, Stephanie, in to work in the office during her summers off in high school. This eventually turned into a
full time position in her early 20’s and morphed into a sales position in 2012. Stephanie has been in the industry for 15 years now.

Robert, the owner of Heritage Pallets voiced his desire to retire in early 2019. Bob and Stephanie decided to approach him about buying the company and
the three were able to work out a deal that worked for everyone. Bob and Stephanie are excited to grow and expand the company and make
it a family business their family will be proud of for generations to come.
