Oxford — tobacco research town, working county.
Granville County still grows more tobacco than most of North Carolina, and Oxford — the county seat since 1811 — is the agricultural anchor. TBC delivers 45 miles south via US-15 to builders working farms, residential, and the light industrial coming up from the Triangle.

What Oxford Builds
The local construction picture.
Granville County has one of the deepest tobacco histories in North Carolina — the Oxford Tobacco Research Station has operated since 1910, and the county remains among the state's largest tobacco-producing areas. The economy diversified through the 20th century into manufacturing, but the early-2000s plant closures hit hard, costing the broader Kerr-Tar region 5,600 jobs. Today's mix is agricultural (tobacco, soybeans, livestock), industrial (manufacturing scattered through the county), and increasingly residential — Oxford's proximity to Raleigh-Durham makes it commuter territory.

What We Deliver Here
Metal, trusses, lumber, trim.
Oxford's agricultural buildings and the residential growth from Triangle commuters both pull from our stocking program. Treated posts for post-frame ag, dimensional lumber for residential framing, metal roofing for both, trim color-matched to either. Whatever the building's for, the materials are the same conversation.
Drive · Delivery · Pickup
45 miles. 60 minutes. Our trucks.
Oxford is 45 miles south via US-15 — about 60 minutes one way. Outside our free 30-mile zone; we'll quote delivery as part of the order. For builders running ongoing work in Granville County, the route to Oxford is a routine run.
The Oxford Tobacco Research Station has been studying how to grow this crop better since 1910. The buildings around it are the buildings we stock materials for.
