About Us - Allen Portable Buildings, Inc.

Allen Portable Buildings was started in 2001 by Kenny and Donna Allen. With all of the building experience that Kenny had learned from working with his father, David Allen, building houses and working with his son, John Allen, building spec houses and offices; building portable sheds seemed like a new adventure and the beginning of Allen Portable Buildings. While Kenny put in long hours building and delivering portable sheds, Donna tended to their customers and managed the office. In 2005 John joined his parents in the portable building business.

In 2015, the Allen family had outgrown their building facility in Grant City, MO. They moved Allen Portable Buildings to Hwy 61, Sikeston, Missouri. Allen Portable Buildings’ new home is a 24,000 square foot building that needed to be modernized to handle the production of manufacturing portable buildings as well as a comfortable office space to accommodate their office personnel and customers.

Kenny has always felt their business adventure was one of his greatest accomplishments and always felt blessed to be working with his wife, son, granddaughter, and their amazing staff. In 2022, Kenny sold Allen Portable Building and passed the reins of the family business to his son, John Allen, as he decided it was time to retire from his business venture. He felt like John was the only person that he could trust to take care of his loyal customers and staff the way that he would.

Since Allen Portable Buildings, Inc. has been passed down to the next generation, John has followed in his father’s footsteps and has enlisted his daughter, Kennedy, to learn the family business inside and out as he once had, knowing that one day it will be her legacy.

Over the years, Allen Portable Buildings, a family owned and operated company, has been able to meet the portable building needs of Missouri, Arkansas, and Southern Illinois families; making sure that each customer felt like a part of the Allen Portable Building family, offering portable buildings from simple storage to customized buildings for every need.
