Crown Forklift Part
Crown Forklift Parts - Two brothers Allen A. Dicke and the late Carl H. Dicke created the Crown company 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 today, becoming the fourth generation of the Dicke descendants to uphold this position.
Now an globally diversified corporation, Crown initially built temperature controls for coal burning furnaces, servicing a small client base. The production of these control items took place in a former hardware store based in New Bremen, Ohio, where Crown's center of operations currently remain.
In 1949, responding to the public's growing fascination with TV, Crown shifted into the production of antenna rotators. This product was utilized to improve television reception and image quality. The company's lucrative move allowed them to become a leading producer of units until 2001. The company ceased production in October after a decline in the worldwide demand for TV antenna rotators.
Crown before long diversified its production to incorporate the restoration of mechanical and electrical components for private and government use in the early 1950's. Following numerous successful bids within a brief period of time, the company had developed a highly regarded business in this field.
Adaptability and achievement dominated Crown's capability to diversify once again. In 1957, production into the materials handling market began with forklift production. The organization believed the industry required a smaller line of top-quality quality forklifts. Crown quickly produced an exceptional range of modern equipment and swiftly grew to be the most rapidly evolving materials handling organization with its collection 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 presently 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 obtaining an Irish manufacturing plant from its parent company, Steinbock, who was a German firm. They started to manufacture Crowns' (PTH), hand pallet trucks. Later that same year, Crown started their first London operation located nearby Heathrow Airport. The sales and service operation of Crown's comprehensive forklift line was accessible in the UK by the end of the decade. In the early 1970's, Crown expanded and began advertising and marketing lift trucks across Europe through independent dealers.
Currently, Crown manufactures an enormous fleet of electric lift trucks. The company's supplier network, stationed in key international markets, consists of both Crown-owned and independently-owned sellers. They are accountable for handling the company's product sales and service.
Corporate offices in New Bremen, Ohio and Munich, Germany provide national advertising and promotional sales support to all dealer and sales personnel. Both Crown sales and supplier personnel are factory- trained in all disciplines to ensure the utmost reliability and service. The Munich office was launched in the 1980's and offers purchasing, advertising and marketing, engineering and design capabilities for India, Africa, the Middle East along with Europe. The diverse family of intercontinental dealers and Crown-owned dealers effectively operate in nearly 100 overseas 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 globally, producing forklifts in Sydney, Australia 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 more than 30 locations in the USA. International branch sales and service center operations consist of locations in Singapore, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Korea, Malaysia, England, Germany, Belgium and Australia.
Through its numerous clientele on all sides of the world, Crown has built an outstanding reputation as a maker of progressive, safe and dependable 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. Just to illustrate, in the 1970's, Crown's introduction of the side-stance design proved exciting and unparalleled by materials handling experts. Today, this design has acquired 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 multiple comfort alternatives to lean, sit or stand, along with its unmatched output capacity.
