Crown Forklift Parts
Crown Forklift Parts - The Crown corporation was founded in 1945 by two brothers, Allen A. Dicke and the late Carl H. Dicke. Carl's son and Chairman Emeritus, James F. Dicke, joined the family company later on that same year. At present, his son, James F. Dicke II, is Chairman and CEO. James F. Dicke III, serves as the company Head these days, becoming the fourth generation of the Dicke descendants to uphold this position.
Now an globally diversified corporation, Crown first manufactured temperature controls for coal burning furnaces, servicing a small clientèle. The assembly of these control units took place in a former hardware store located in New Bremen, Ohio, where Crown's center of operations currently remain.
By the year 1949, Crown moved into the production 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 lucrative move enabled them to become a leading producer of units until 2001. The company ceased production in October after a decline in the global need for TV antenna rotators.
Crown before long diversified its production to include the repair of mechanized and electrical components for private and government use in the early 1950's. Following a number of profitable bids inside a brief period of time, the company had built a reputable business in this field.
Flexibility and achievement dominated Crown's ability to diversify once again. In 1957, production into the material handling industry began with forklift production. The company believed the industry demanded a smaller line of first-class quality forklifts. Crown promptly fashioned an exceptional range of modern equipment and swiftly became the most rapidly evolving material handling company with its collection of merchandise.
In 1966, Crown ventured outside of the US material handling marketplace and into Australia. Sydney, Australia is home to the regional headquarters and at present leads Crown's Asia Pacific service, sales and marketing teams. Crown remains an unwavering industry leader these days, supported by exceptional service, solid sales and strong manufacturing operations.
Two years later, Crown had moved into the European markets by buying up an Irish manufacturing facility from a German Company, Steinbock. There they began to assemble PTH hand pallet trucks. Later on that same year, Crown began their first London operation located nearby Heathrow Airport. The sales and service operation of Crown's complete lift truck line was offered in the UK by the end of the decade. In the early 1970's, Crown expanded and began marketing and advertising lift trucks across Europe through autonomous sellers.
Nowadays, Crown manufactures an enormous fleet of electric forklifts. The company's vendor network, stationed in key international markets, consists of both Crown-owned and independently-owned dealers. They are responsible for handling the company's product sales and service.
Corporate offices in New Bremen, Ohio and Munich, Germany provide nationwide advertising and promotional sales support to all dealer and sales personnel. Both Crown sales and dealer personnel are factory- trained in all disciplines to guarantee the utmost reliability and service. The Munich office was launched in the 1980's and offers purchasing, marketing, engineering and design capabilities for India, Africa, the Middle East along with Europe. The diverse family of intercontinental sellers and Crown-owned sellers successfully operate in almost 100 foreign city environments.
The 6 USA production locations for Crown consist of New Bremen, Ohio; New Knoxville, Ohio; Fort Loramie, Ohio; Celina, Ohio; Kinston, North Carolina; and Greencastle, Indiana. Crown proudly manufactures internationally, producing lift trucks in Sydney, Australia ever since 1966, Queretaro, Mexico since 1973, Roding, Germany since 1986 and Suzhou, China since 2006. Crown also owns branch sales and service center operations in over 30 locations in the USA. International branch sales and service center operations include locations in Singapore, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Korea, Malaysia, England, Germany, Belgium and Australia.
Through its numerous clientèle around the world, Crown has built an outstanding reputation as a producer of forward-thinking, safe and reliable machines. The company has been awarded more than 50 distinguished design awards and the products that Crown develops continues to attain credit for innovation and top design excellence. For example, in the 1970's, Crown's introduction of the side-stance design proved exciting and unparalleled by material handling experts. Today, this design has gained common acceptance and earned a Design of the Decade award from the International Design Society of America. Once again, more than thirty years later, the 5200S Series Reach Truck is another industry first, providing the operator with many comfort choices to lean, sit or stand, along with its unequaled productivity capacity.
