A Brief Company History In 1990, Neil Miller and Tony Ferguson founded Border Concepts in Charlotte, NC as a steel landscape edging systems manufacturer. Through the years, this grass roots business grew organically, expanding its product lines based on the needs of the company’s customer base: Garden centers Growers Contractors Landscape supply yards Other independent retailers In 1994, BCI introduced Iron Edge, the country’s first galvanized steel paver restraint. The following year, we developed a ball cart, which earned national recognition and led to a new line of tree carts, nursery carts, and retail carts. In 1995, BCI also launched our first decorative steel and wrought iron products, including hanging baskets, window baskets, hook, trellises, arbors, and plant stands—all in a wide range of prices. This product line expanded BCI’s manufacturing facility to over 90,000 square feet. Ten years later, BCI introduced a line of quality pottery, which led to the company’s acquisition of the International Pottery Alliance. Before long, BCI was importing the best pottery worldwide from manufacturers in Germany, Italy, Malaysia, China, Thailand, and Vietnam. Once again, we expanded our facilities with a brand new 100,000 square foot distribution center to complement our manufacturing plant. Today, our multifaceted company also offers the following products to its independent retail customers created by its own designers: Resin animals Tracking trailers Commercial and residential tools A full line of store display fixtures Border Concepts continues to carry our nationally recognized reputation as a premier commercial supplier of steel landscape edging into each of our product divisions.
