Anderson Machine Company, Inc., was founded as Anderson Machine Works, Inc., (referred to as "AMW") by Troy O. Anderson in 1935. Troy Anderson had many contracts through the U.S. Government during World War II. To my knowledge, most of the work was channeled through his son-in-law, George Winston.  Mr.Winston, at the time, was employed with the Army Corp of Engineers. As a matter of fact, there is a machine that was bound for placement on a naval vessel that was sent to the shop to perform matching tasks for the war effort. Towards the end of the war and all the through the 1950s and 1960s, TVA ramped up their rural electrification of the southeast. Unfortunately, sometime in the 1950s, Troy Anderson passed. His son, J.T. Anderson, was employed with Boeing Aircraft in Seattle, WA, came back to Chattanooga and took over operations. Throughout the years, AMC has performed work for various companies in the Chattanooga and North Georgia areas.

2024 brought a new chapter to the life of AMC. A thorough search for another location to house AMC’s two facilities began. The search made its way into the North Georgia area and after viewing several buildings the prime location was located and purchased. The moving process was orchestrated by Jonathan Bell and completed in the summer of 2024. From this time forward our family, leaders, and dedicated employees will continue the saga of Anderson Machine that began in 1935.
