ABOUT US

Ledwell and Son original manufactured truck body
Buddy Ledwell - founder of Ledwell and Son Enterprises

Where We Started

After returning from the war in 1946, L.W. (Buddy) Ledwell and his father, Lloy Ward Ledwell, established Ledwell & Son Lumber in Texarkana, Texas. Building pickup racks and livestock trailers was a sideline for the company at first, but soon became the focus of the operation.

Buddy incorporated Ledwell & Son and built his first truck shop at the corner of Robinson Road and Waco Street in Texarkana. Today, Ledwell includes fourth-generation family members and has expanded operations onto a substantial manufacturing site with nearly 500 talented employees.

Where We Are Today

For over 75 years, Ledwell has continued the legacy of excellence started by Lloy and Buddy Ledwell, with an expansion of services and an eye for quality and dedicated customer service. Ledwell offers custom manufactured truck bodies, trailers, and parts and service. Businesses, large and lean, come to Ledwell with transportation needs and are provided with the best, most innovative solution. 

Ledwell’s mission is to manufacture top-quality equipment that is efficient, reliable, and customized exactly to the customer’s needs.
