Who we are
Report
The war between the states had just ended. The rumble of ox carts along the narrow streets of old San Antonio was a familiar sound when a little shop was opened on Commerce Street for the purpose of making stencils for wool and cotton shippers. This was the humble beginning of our company. Rubber stamps and Seals were later added to meet the growing demands of the businessmen of Texas for these essential products. In 1912, George T. Southwell purchased the company from one of the employees of the original founder.

Thank you so much for your help in speeding this process for the JOE NEMECEK MATH WING project. The letters were put up the same day we received them. Pictures were taken by his daughter and shown to Mr. Nemecek who was in Hospice at the time. This week Joe passed away. We just want you to know that without your help he would not have gotten to see the wing BISD dedicated to him.

There have been so many kind compliments on this addition to our school district, Also a BIG Thank You to Veronica Moreno for your help during this transaction. Sincerely, BISD Staff & Family

My Family and I have worked with The Southwell Company on two occasions now, One with a Historical Marker in Michigan and the other with a Memorial Plaque in NH and both instances were wonderfully painless and the results we both breathtaking! The quality and craftsmanship of the product they create are timeless and second to none. Working with Veronica and the Team was a great experience where they not only assisted in the process of finding the right product but went that extra step to help in the creative side as well to make our pieces just over the top.

Highly recommend ind when the need arises again, we will not hesitate to reach out to this team again! Thank you yet again for a perfect piece of art and way to capture beautiful memories Charles Mitchell NH

The Southwell Co helped us design and fabricate a beautiful bronze plaque for the interior of our museum. The company has excellent communication, and walked us through a number of options until we found what worked for us. This is our second time working with the Southwell Co. I highly recommend them!

We recently worked with Veronica, Norma and their team at Southwell on a historical job in Port Aransas, Texas. We had cast aluminum and cast bronze plaques custom made. The end products were exactly what we were hoping for. They do exceptional work and they were a pleasure to do business with. We really are pleased with the end result. I would recommend them, and use the company again in the future. Thanks for all your help!

My husband and I had the pleasure of spending some time with Billy Southwell and Shannon Disney. They sat down with us and chatted about the company as well as Texas history. We even had the pleasure of meeting Scott Southwell and several of the other staff members, who really do seem like a family. They showed us several steps of how the historical markers are created, which is a remarkable and intricate process. Cruz was awesome – he really seems to have a passion for what he does. This is an amazing company – family. We are very grateful that they took the time with us.

Excellent customer service, Ashley takes great pride in her work and shows professional courtesy and will walk you through each step of the process from drafting a plaque to follow up when it is in production and then follow through on delivery. I highly recommend Southwell Company!
