No, but we do share a history. Biltmore Industries (our parent company) was an Arts and Crafts enterprise that originated in Biltmore Village and was financially backed by George and Edith Vanderbilt. In 1917, a few years after Mr. Vanderbilt's death, his wife, Edith, sold the Industries to Fred Loring Seely. Seely, then manager of The Grove Park Inn, relocated the business to this location.
