Drummond does business from the ground down. The company operates the Shoal Creek underground coal mine in Alabama and the Pribbenow surface coal mine in Colombia. Drummond's ABC Coke unit produces foundry coke, which is used mainly in the automotive, construction, and sugar industries, at a plant in Alabama. It controls more than 2 billion tons of reserves and sells around 30 million annually. In addition, Drummond develops housing communities and office parks in Alabama, California, and Florida. H. E. Drummond began his company in 1935 on land homesteaded by his mother; eventually his five sons entered the business. The Drummond family still owns and manages the company.
