Carter Enterprises Inc. began in 1953 when brothers Cal and Jack Carter formed a partnership and started building small constructiion projects in southeastern Utah. When it was evident that the economy in southeastern Utah would not grow the Carter Brothers relocated to southwestern Utah in Cedar City. The brothers started out very small with limited growth untill they landed their first "Big Job" a new elementary school in their hometown of Minersville Utah. This project proved to be a major stepping stone to bigger and better things.

Now in its second generation of leadership Carter Enterprises Inc. is an industry leader covering  the geographical area of southern Utah and northern Arizona.  A diversified builder covering all areas of commercial building including Lower and Higher Education, Industrial, Manufacturing, Religious, Retail/Shopping, Offices, Civil Bridgework and Custom Homes.
