Clayton Homes
Clayton Homes, a Berkshire Hathaway company founded in 1956, builds, sells, finances and insures manufactured, modular and site-built homes across the United States.
Clayton Homes is the largest builder of manufactured housing and modular homes in the United States. Founded in 1956 in Tennessee and now part of Berkshire Hathaway, the company operates a vertically integrated business that builds, sells, finances and insures homes. It says it has helped more than 1.5 million families achieve homeownership.
The company's output spans several housing types: manufactured homes aimed at affordability and quality across a range of budgets, factory-built modular homes, tiny homes, and dormitory housing for colleges and universities. Its eBuilt line focuses on energy-efficient, sustainable construction. Alongside construction, the business covers home financing and home insurance, giving employees exposure to homebuilding, finance and insurance operations within one organisation.
Clayton Homes runs more than 40 home building facilities and 19 supply facilities, and works with nine site-built home builders. Technical work spans manufactured housing construction, modular and site-built construction, energy-efficient building and sustainable building practices.
The company describes itself as a values-driven organisation with a mission of opening doors to a better life through homeownership, a focus on creating a world-class experience for customers and team members, and stated commitments to sustainability, innovation and attainable housing.
