In the late 19th and early 20th century, the village expanded with the establishment of several brick and gravel industries. Remains from this era can still be seen in the topography of Oxie. For example, the ponds Kvistadammarna, are the remaining digs from where Djurbergs brick factory extracted clay. Like in many other small, rural communities this rapid industrialisation was facilitated by the establishment of railroad communications.
