Snow's father, Amos Snow II, started Bois D'Arc International as a sales company in 1989. Snow III bought the company five years ago and moved the business to manufacturing as well as sales. The company's customers have increased from 75 to 850 in the last five years.
"We had sustained growth the last five years and outgrew the facilities. We needed more space," Snow said. "We had 62-percent growth this past year. We have 18 employees, but I anticipate growing to 40 in 2005, then 100 in 2006."
