Founded in 1984, Esh's Utility Buildings has seen expanded growth in recent years, including throughout the pandemic. In addition to simple sheds and storage buildings, their product lines have grown to include prefabricated garages, cabin shells, horse run-ins, dog kennels, chicken coops, children's playhouses, and more.

Despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Esh's Utility Buildings saw strong sales in 2020. "The pandemic didn't really affect our sales," says Chad Gingerich, CEO of Esh's Utility Buildings. "If anything, it made us even busier. It affected our ability to get materials, but not our sales so much."

Gingerich credits the company's growth in part to greater online visibility. The company launched a new website in the spring of 2020, including a 3D modeling tool that allows shoppers to create and save customized building designs. The company also began listing all in-stock buildings on their website, enabling website visitors to see the specific buildings available at every sales location.

An expanded network of physical sales locations has also allowed more customers to see buildings for themselves and enjoy the in-person buying experience. Esh's Utility Buildings has sales locations throughout central Kentucky, including in Glasgow, Elizabethtown, Bowling Green, and Tompkinsville. Locations in Tennessee include the cities of Lebanon, Mt. Juliet, and Lafayette.
