McCarter had its beginning in Laurinburg, NC in 1945 when W. G. McCarter came to the community to direct a six-week job contracted by Morgan Mills for a Raeford plant. W. G. McCarter was a superintendent for the John Bolen Company of Charlotte at that time.
W. G. McCarter was so impressed with the community he was instrumental in the establishment of a branch office of the Bolen firm in August 1947. It was located on East Church Street in Laurinburg, NC, and was called Electrical Contracting and Engineering Company.
Ten years later McCarter purchased the Laurinburg branch of Electrical Contracting and Engineering Company and renamed it McCarter Electrical Company.
