Packer Brick, Inc. has been in business for almost 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, and 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. As a result, Packer Brick was ready for the phenomenal growth in the market today. Because of the great relationships the Packers and their associates have built with its suppliers, manufactured brick now makes up over 75% of Packer Brick's total sales and enables the company to continue to offer a wide variety of antique and manufactured brick to old and new customers alike.
