Crown Forklift Part
Crown Forklift Parts - The Crown company 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 this time, his son, James F. Dicke II, is Chairman and CEO. James F. Dicke III, serves as the company Head today, becoming the fourth generation of the Dicke descendants to continue this position.
Crown first started with a small client base developing temperature controls that they manufactured for coal burning furnaces. The production of these control items took place in a former hardware store based in New Bremen, Simi Valley, where Crown's center of operations presently remain.
In 1949, responding to the public's increasing fascination with TV, Crown moved into the production of antenna rotators. This product was used to improve TV reception and image quality. The company's successful move allowed them to become a leading maker of units until 2001. The company ceased production in October after a decline in the global demand for TV antenna rotators.
Crown before long diversified its manufacturing to bring in the repair of mechanized and electrical parts for private and government use in the early 1950's. Following numerous successful bids inside a brief period of time, the company had built a reputable 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 company believed the industry demanded a smaller line of top-quality quality lift trucks. Crown quickly fashioned an exceptional series of progressive equipment and swiftly evolved into the most rapidly evolving material handling company with its assortment of merchandise.
By 1966, Crown had ventured into the foreign materials handling marketplaces by opening up shop in Sydney, Australia. Sydney is currently a regional head office for Crown for all Pacific Asian sales, advertising and marketing, and services. Crown remains an unwavering market leader today, 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 started to construct PTH hand pallet trucks. Later that same year, Crown began their first London operation located near Heathrow Airport. The sales and service operation of Crown's comprehensive lift truck line was accessible in the UK by the end of the decade. In the early 1970's, Crown expanded and began advertising and marketing forklifts across Europe through independent sellers.
Nowadays, Crown manufactures a massive fleet of electric forklifts. The company's supplier network, stationed in key international markets, consists of both Crown-owned and independently-owned sellers. They are responsible for managing the company's product sales and service.
There is Corporate offices in Munich, Germany and in New Bremen Simi Valley, which offer promotional sales and nationwide advertising support to all of their dealers and sales personnel. Crown dealers and sales personnel are trained in-house in numerous disciplines to guarantee the utmost reliability and service. The Munich office was launched in the 1980's and delivers purchasing, marketing and advertising, engineering and design capabilities for India, Africa, the Middle East along with Europe. The diverse relations of intercontinental sellers and Crown-owned sellers effectively operate in nearly 100 overseas city environments.
The 6 USA production locations for Crown consist of New Bremen, Simi Valley; New Knoxville, Simi Valley; Fort Loramie, Simi Valley; Celina, Simi Valley; Kinston, North Carolina; and Greencastle, Indiana. Crown proudly manufactures globally, building forklifts 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 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.
Crown has earned a successful reputation as a dependable, safe and forward-thinking organization by satisfied consumers worldwide. The company has earned over 50 distinguished design awards and the Crown goods continue to attain recognition for top design excellence and modernization. For instance, in the 1970's, Crown's launch of the side-stance design proved exciting and unparalleled by materials handling specialists. Today, this design has acquired widespread 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 market original, offering the operator with multiple comfort options to lean, sit or stand, along with its unparalleled productivity capability.
