Our Family Business


Over the course of our 135-plus years in business, one thing has remained the same: We're a family business! Wm. J. Mills & Co. is currently owned and operated by the fifth generation of the Mills family.

Our customers come to us for quality in both the goods we produce and the service we provide. All of our products are handcrafted in our shop in Greenport, N.Y. on the North Fork of Long Island and certified Made in the USA!
