The Fitzhugh Snapp Company is a historic commercial building in rural Woodruff County, Arkansas. It is located at the southwest corner of County Roads 140 and 165 in the northern part of the county, about 6 miles (9.7 km) north of Augusta. It is a single-story structure, built out of load-bearing brick, and finished (as of 2005) with diamond-shaped asbestos shingles. A porch shelters the main (east-facing) facade; it is covered by corrugated metal. A parapet above has a panel identifying the building. Built in 1935, it served the rural cotton-farming community until 1981.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.[1]
