In 2016, Cannon Johnson felt there were simply not enough good fence contractors to service the market in West Tennessee. They believed they could fill the gaps, so they formed Jackson Fence Company - of Medina, Tennessee.  With just $600, a 17-year-old truck, and some borrowed tools, they got to work.  


Hole after hole, blister after blister. Jackson Fence Co. worked their tails off learning the trade. They didn't feel they were the best, but they worked hard.  Looking back, Cannon Johnson believes all their fences were quality - even the early ones - they were just very inefficient.  But here they are, 4 years later, and about 1,200 fences under their belt, somewhere along the way, they have gotten pretty good and efficient at what they do. 


Cannon says that like any business.  It's hard.  It's hard now, but it's hard in a different way than it was in 2016.  He feels they are still learning, and fortunately it seems we're still growing.  Today, it takes my wife, seven guys, and myself to keep up with the demand that West Tennessee has afforded us.  Some days, it seems we're only barely keeping up.  Still, it's been fun.  We've met a lot of really good people, and we've seen West Tennessee more times in the last four years than I ever imagined.  Hopefully, if you're reading this, you will choose to become a part of our story as well.
