About Us

Professional Grade & Residential Fertilizers
As the state began to experience its dramatic growth, the changes in emphasis between agricultural and residential fertilizer use became apparent and Sunniland concentrated its efforts on the latter.

While still serving the bulk fertilizer customers – golf courses and growers – Sunniland now retails most of its output in bag form for the homeowner. Residential customers can visit Lowes, Ace Hardware or Walmart to purchase our top quality fertilizers and lawn and garden products.

From Roots to Roofs
The beginnings of our roofing supply division date back to the early 1900s when Sunniland supplied local farmers with baskets, seed, hand tools, shingles, and tarpaper. Today, our roofing supplies centers have expanded to some 20-distribution locations across Florida and South Georgia.

Throughout this history of growth Sunniland Corporation has never lost sight of its dedication to its customers and the ideals, integrity, and hard work that made this growth possible.
