The Mount Joy Steam Mill was build in Mount Joy borough in 1854 by gabriel Bear. in 1870, Bear sold the mill to John M. Brant. When A. K. Manning joined Brandt as a business partner in 1881, they added rollers and searators for a more modern way to make flour. The company was renamed Mount Joy Roller Mill.
