History of The Walker Company

The roots of The Walker Company can be traced to 1933 when Arthur E. (Easy) Walker formed a partnership with his father and brother named A.W. Walker & Son. This partnership purchased a parcel of land where it opened the White Rock Mountain Quarry and produced crushed limestone products. This acquisition was the beginning of what The Walker Company is today. 

Although several of the locations and names have changed, The Walker Company has continuously engaged in the production of construction materials since it opened the White Rock Mountain Quarry in the 1930’s. Today, The Walker Company’s production operations include ownership interests in and operation of five quarries, two bituminous hot-mix asphalt plants and one ready-mix asphalt concrete plant.

Over the last six decades, The Walker Company has engaged in many facets of material production, highway contracting and commercial building construction throughout central and eastern Kentucky. The company’s projects range from construction of highways to new building construction, parks and golf courses. 

From its inception, The Walker Company has remained a family-owned and operated company with the fourth generation of Walkers now involved in the operation of the company. Yesterday’s mission of Easy Walker remains in effect today…provide the customer with a product of the highest quality in the timeliest manner employing local people and profitability will benefit.
