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. Presently, 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 family to continue this position.
Now an globally diversified corporation, Crown first created temperature controls for coal burning furnaces, servicing a small clientele. The assembly of these control items took place in a former hardware store stationed in New Bremen, Phoenix, where Crown's headquarters presently remain.
By the year 1949, Crown moved into the production of rotators for antenna due the increased interest in televisions at the time. The product was proficient at improving the picture and reception quality. The company's lucrative move allowed them to become a leading maker of units until 2001. The company ceased production in October after a decline in the worldwide need for television antenna rotators.
In the early 1950's Crown diversified into the production and repair of electronic and mechanized parts for government and private industry. After numerous successful bids inside a brief period of time, the company had built a highly regarded business in this field.
Versatility and achievement dominated Crown's capability to diversify once again. In 1957, production into the material handling industry began with forklift manufacturing. The organization believed the market needed a smaller line of first-class quality forklifts. Crown quickly produced an exceptional range of modern equipment and swiftly became the most rapidly evolving material handling company with its variety of products.
By 1966, Crown had ventured into the foreign materials handling markets by opening up shop in Sydney, Australia. Sydney is now a regional head office for Crown for all Pacific Asian sales, marketing, and services. Crown remains an unwavering industry leader today, supported by exceptional service, solid sales and solid production operations.
In 1968, Crown established itself in the European marketplace by purchasing an Irish manufacturing facility from its parent company, Steinbock, who was a German firm. They began to manufacture Crowns' (PTH), hand pallet trucks. Later on that same year, Crown started their first London operation situated close by 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 independent dealers.
Currently, Crown manufactures a massive fleet of electric forklifts. The company's supplier network, situated in key global 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, Phoenix and Munich, Germany offer national 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 provides purchasing, marketing and advertising, engineering and design capabilities for India, Africa, the Middle East along with Europe. The diverse relations of global dealers and Crown-owned sellers successfully operate in nearly 100 overseas city environments.
The 6 USA manufacturing locations for Crown include New Bremen, Phoenix; New Knoxville, Phoenix; Fort Loramie, Phoenix; Celina, Phoenix; Kinston, North Carolina; and Greencastle, Indiana. Crown proudly manufactures internationally, building lift trucks 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 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 clientele around the world, Crown has built an outstanding 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 innovation and top design excellence. To provide an example, 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 general 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 market original, providing the operator with many comfort choices to lean, sit or stand, along with its unmatched productivity capacity.
