This year marks a major milestone in our journey—L.E. Smith is proudly celebrating 75 years of service, innovation, and dedication to delivering high-quality countertops and exceptional client experiences.
A Story That Started in 1950
Founded in 1950, The L.E. Smith Company began as a small, family-owned business with a simple mission: to provide quality surfaces with integrity and care. From those humble beginnings in Bryan, Ohio, we’ve grown into one of the nation’s most trusted names in laminate and solid surface countertops, serving both commercial and residential markets.
Over the past seven and a half decades, we’ve remained committed to the core values that shaped us—craftsmanship, client-first service, and innovation. Through industry changes, market demands, and evolving design trends, we’ve never stopped pushing forward.
Built to Last—Just Like Our Products
Our history is defined by our people. Generations of talented craftsmen, project managers, and customer service specialists have helped L.E. Smith grow into a nationally recognized fabricator known for reliability, precision, and partnership.
We’ve embraced innovation—integrating advanced fabrication technology and expanding our material offerings to meet the demands of a dynamic market. Today, L.E. Smith, as a Cutting Edge Countertops company, now offers a full range of custom countertops, including quartz, granite, solid surface, and laminate, for everything from healthcare and hospitality to education and residential spaces.
“Reaching 75 years is an incredible milestone—and it’s a reflection of the trust our partners place in us every day,” said Brian Smith, Director of Business Development. “This anniversary is more than just a celebration of our past. It’s a renewed commitment to our clients, our team, and the values that have brought us this far. We’re excited for what’s next.”
Highlights From 75 Years:
• Trusted partner to thousands of builders, dealers, and designers
• Expanded nationwide capabilities with regional service and personal support
• Built a legacy on quality, communication, and always doing the right thing
While we’re proud of our past, we’re even more excited for the future. As we enter our next chapter, our focus remains the same: building lasting relationships and delivering surfaces that make a lasting impact.
Whether you’ve been with us from the beginning or recently discovered the L.E. Smith difference, we thank you for being part of our journey. Here’s to 75 years—and the many more to come.
