History

A  locally owned and operated business serving Marlboro and Chesterfield  counties in SC for over 50 years. Carlisle T. Smith founded  Warden and Smith in 1956 with business partner A. F. Warden.  

Following  the passing of Mr. Warden, Mr. Smith retained the original name  and incorporated the business in 1966. The original location in  Wallace, SC was relocated to the current Cheraw site and dispatch plants  were added in Pageland and Bennettsville to facilitate coverage for all  of Marlboro and Chesterfield counties. Mr. Smith continued his  involvement until his passing in 2012 with visits to the office to  provide guidance and advice to grandsons Burchell King (Vice President)  and Brandon King (Office Manager) who handle day-to-day business  matters.
