History & Growth

Apollo Chemical Corporation was founded in 1968 by Dexter Barbee, Sr.  Apollo Chemical Corporation was acquired by CPC Chemical Holdings, LLC in September of 2005.  The Charlotte, NC production facility of CPC Chemical Holdings, also known as Chemical Technologies, moved its operations to Apollo’s Graham, NC facility on January of 2006.  Then on September 14, 2007 Mount Vernon Mills, Inc purchased the assets of CPC and thus forming Mount Vernon Chemicals.
