Packer Brick, Inc. has been in business for over fifty years. V.J. Packer started the family business by hauling in brick from Mexico and selling it in the Houston area during the early 1950s. He moved the business to Dallas and began selling used "antique" brick as well. As the business grew in the '60s, the company began importing antique brick from Chicago and Oklahoma.
In 1968, Jerry Packer took over the business. Packer Brick continued selling Mexican and antique brick exclusively to residential home builders in the North Dallas market. Brett Packer joined the business in 1985, just in time to experience the collapse of the housing market in the late '80s. That collapse turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as it allowed the company to begin selling manufactured brick from across the U.S. Jerry and Brett added Brian Luff as Vice-President of Sales in 1995 and the company has continued to grow into the 21st Century and now services homebuilders and remodelers in all of North Central Texas. Since moving into their 15,000 square foot warehouse in Garland in 2005, the company now sells a wide variety of products including natural stone, thin veneer stone and brick, masonry fireplace products, and many other masonry products such as mortar and brick cleaners.
Packer Brick is proud of the relationships they have built over the years with their manufacturing partners and customers alike. While they no longer sell Mexican brick, Packer Brick is one of the few independent distributors in the United States that continue selling antique brick and pavers. They are members of the Brick Industry Association and the DFW Brick Council. They support the Green Building Initiatives that are taking place across the country today and practice recycling themselves.
Packer Brick hopes you will find their website useful and will contact them soon to let them show you why their motto is “Custom Brick for Custom Homes”.

Volunteer of the Year Award
Next, an award was presented to honor one individual for his or her time and energy devoted to helping BIA achieve the industry’s strategic goals. The 2009 Volunteer of the Year Award, which was determined by BIA’s senior staff and President and CEO Dick Jennison, was bestowed upon Brett Packer, President of Packer Brick, who has given generously of his time and talents toward the advancement and defense of our industry. Brett Packer is an officer of the BIA Board of Directors, serves on BIA’s Executive Committee, is on the Board of Directors of BIA-Southwest Region, is a constant recruiter of new distributor members into BIA, and is always willing to provide advice and counsel on BIA’s initiatives that impact our members.
While this leader is President of his local distributorship, in his work with BIA he always has his eye out for what’s best for the industry. He has gone to great lengths to ensure that initiatives he puts forth for our Association’s work do not impose an unfair burden on both manufacturers and distributors – regardless of the size or the number of markets they service. Thank you Brett Packer!
