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 company 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 uphold this position.
Now an internationally diversified company, Crown initially built temperature controls for coal burning furnaces, servicing a small client base. The production of these control units took place in a former hardware store based in New Bremen, Ohio, where Crown's head office presently remain.
By the year 1949, Crown moved into the construction of rotators for antenna due the increased fascination with televisions at the time. The product was able to improve the picture and reception 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 need for TV antenna rotators.
In the early 1950's Crown diversified into the production and repair of electronic and mechanical parts for government and private market. After a number of successful bids within a short period of time, the company had built a respectable business in this field.
Adaptability and success dominated Crown's ability to diversify once again. In 1957, production into the materials handling market started with lift truck production. The organization believed the industry demanded a smaller line of first-class quality lift trucks. Crown promptly fashioned an exceptional series of progressive equipment and swiftly evolved into the most rapidly evolving material handling company with its range of merchandise.
In 1966, Crown ventured outside of the US materials handling marketplace and into Australia. Sydney, Australia is home to the regional headquarters and currently leads Crown's Asia Pacific service, sales and advertising and marketing teams. Crown remains an unwavering industry leader today, supported by exceptional operations, solid sales and strong production operations.
Two years later, Crown had moved into the European markets by buying up an Irish production plant from a German Company, Steinbock. There they started to build PTH hand pallet trucks. Later on that same year, Crown started their first London operation stationed nearby Heathrow Airport. The sales and service operation of Crown's comprehensive lift truck line was available 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 independent sellers.
Crown at present has a considerable network of Crown-owned and independently-owned sellers in various key global marketplaces offering a huge fleet of electric lift trucks. They are responsible for managing the company's product sales and service.
Corporate offices in New Bremen, Ohio and Munich, Germany offer nationwide marketing and promotional sales support to all seller and sales personnel. Both Crown sales and supplier 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 and advertising, engineering and design functions for India, Africa, the Middle East along with Europe. The diverse relations of international dealers and Crown-owned dealers effectively operate in almost 100 foreign city environments.
Crown has established 6 manufacturing locations in the United States that consist of: New Knoxville; Celina, Ohio; Greencastle, Indiana; Kinston, North Carolina; Fort Loramie, Ohio; and New Bremen, Ohio. Serving their expanding overseas markets, Crown has manufacturing facilities 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 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 first-rate reputation as a producer of progressive, 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 modernization and top design excellence. For instance, in the 1970's, Crown's launch of the side-stance design proved exciting and unparalleled by materials handling professionals. Today, this design has acquired common acceptance and earned a Design of the Decade award from the International Design Society of America. Again, more than thirty years later, the 5200S Series Reach Truck is another industry first, offering the operator with multiple comfort choices to lean, sit or stand, along with its unmatched productivity capacity.
