Capital Sand Company was incorporated in Jefferson City, Mo., on August 8, 1973. On August 9, 2023, the company celebrated its 50th anniversary with luncheons for employees at all of its plants and a ribbon cutting with the Jefferson City Chamber of Commerce. In the past 50 years, CSC went from a single location to multiple locations in multiple states, employing 2,000 people, and has grown into the largest sand producer on the Missouri River. CSC was started in 1973 by Mike Farmer. After graduating from college at the University of Missouri, he worked for about a year in another industry. Then his father, Elliott Farmer Sr., told him that Jefferson City needed another sand supplier. Elliott Sr. was in the ready-mix concrete and asphalt business and had an ownership interest in Farmer's Concrete, Cole County Industries, Jefferson Asphalt in Jefferson City and El-don Concrete. |
