Firm Foundation... L. G. Everist started in 1876 selling retail coal in Havana, Illinois. Our namesake, Lucus Garland Everist, saw an opportunity to supply a high quality product to a marketplace full of second-rate goods. He paid attention to what his customers wanted: routine delivery of a common product at a minimum of trouble and cost. Fast-forward 130+ years and three generations later, the focus is just as sharp. In a marketplace driven by commodity mind-sets, the flow-rate of our business hasn’t really changed. We continue to earn business every day with details such as quality, on-time delivery, personal attention, and solutions to the problems our customer’s face - across all our division and facilities. Safe Future... L. G. Everist, Inc., strongly believes in our Corporate Social Responsibility. This is a fancy name for our continuing commitment to behave ethically and contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce and their families as well as of the local community and society at large As L. G. Everist, Inc. builds on the Firm Foundation of the past towards a Safe Future, we are continually expanding our product base yet remain committed to our core values in order to better serve the needs of our customers. We stand firm in our commitment to the industry and look forward to continued success.
