Crown Forklift Part
Crown Forklift Parts - Two brothers Allen A. Dicke and the late Carl H. Dicke created the Crown business in 1945. Carl's son, James F. Dicke joined the family business later on that year. At present, his son, James F. Dicke II, is Chairman and CEO. James F. Dicke III, serves as the company President at the moment, becoming the fourth generation of the Dicke descendants to continue this position.
Now an internationally diversified company, Crown initially built temperature controls for coal burning furnaces, servicing a small clientèle. The assembly of these control items took place in a former hardware store based in New Bremen, Ohio, where Crown's headquarters presently remain.
By the year 1949, Crown shifted into the making of rotators for antenna due the greater fascination with televisions at the time. The product was able to improve the image and reception quality. The company's successful move enabled them to become a leading producer of units until 2001. The company ceased production in October after a decline in the global demand for television antenna rotators.
In the early 1950's Crown diversified into the manufacturing and restoration of electronic and mechanical machinery for government and private market. Following a number of successful bids inside a short period of time, the company had developed a respectable business in this field.
Flexibility and achievement dominated Crown's ability to diversify once again. In 1957, production into the materials handling market started with lift truck production. The company believed the industry required a smaller line of top-quality quality lift trucks. Crown immediately fashioned an exceptional range of contemporary equipment and swiftly grew to be the most rapidly evolving material handling company with its assortment of merchandise.
In 1966, Crown ventured outside of the US materials handling marketplace and into Australia. Sydney, Australia is home to the regional head office and at present leads Crown's Asia Pacific service, sales and advertising and marketing teams. Crown remains an unwavering industry leader these days, supported by exceptional service, solid sales and solid manufacturing operations.
In 1968, Crown established itself in the European market by acquiring an Irish production plant from its parent company, Steinbock, who was a German firm. They began to manufacture Crowns' (PTH), hand pallet trucks. Later that same year, Crown began their first London operation located nearby Heathrow Airport. The sales and service operation of Crown's complete forklift line was offered in the UK by the end of the decade. In the early 1970's, Crown expanded and began marketing lift trucks across Europe through autonomous dealers.
Nowadays, Crown manufactures a vast fleet of electric forklifts. The company's supplier network, located in key international markets, consists of both Crown-owned and independently-owned sellers. They are accountable for managing the company's product sales and service.
