Brief History

Hipp Enterprises was founded in 1994 by brothers Todd and Eric Hipp. The company started with one truck and a C6D Treefarmer skidder. A few years after the company's inception, their younger brother, Chad, joined their ranks becoming the third partner in 1998. Later, Hipp Enterprises incorporated as Hipp Enterprises, Inc. (HEI). In 2011, HEI added another location in Walterboro, SC. This location will help serve a growing clientale in the low country of South Carolina.

In Hipp Enterprises' first year of business, the company had one skidder and sprayed approximately 2000 acres. Now, we have four skidders and spray more than 30,000 acres per year. In 2000, we added a custom built fertilizer unit to a skidder and later added another. Currently we fertilize as many as 10,000 acres in a season.
