Crown Forklift Part - Two brothers Allen A. Dicke and the late Carl H. Dicke established the Crown business in 1945. Carl's son, James F. Dicke joined the family company later that year. Presently, his son, James F. Dicke II, is Chairman and CEO. James F. Dicke III, serves as the company Head at the moment, becoming the fourth generation of the Dicke family to uphold this position.
Crown initially began with a small client base developing temperature controls that they manufactured for coal burning furnaces. The production of these control units took place in a former hardware store based in New Bremen, El Cajon, where Crown's head office presently remain.
By the year 1949, Crown shifted into the making 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 profitable 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 television antenna rotators.
Crown before long diversified its production to incorporate the restoration of mechanical and electrical parts for private and government use in the early 1950's. After several lucrative bids inside a short period of time, the company had built a reputable business in this field.
With such flexibility and success, Crown was able to diversify its production to embrace material handling equipment. Crown began production of forklifts and lift trucks in 1957. The organization believed the industry needed a smaller line of top-quality quality forklifts. Crown immediately produced an exceptional range of contemporary equipment and swiftly evolved into the most rapidly evolving materials handling organization with its variety of merchandise.
In 1966, Crown ventured outside of the US material handling market and into Australia. Sydney, Australia is home to the regional head office and currently leads Crown's Asia Pacific service, sales and marketing teams. 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 marketplaces by buying up an Irish manufacturing facility from a German Company, Steinbock. There they started to make PTH hand pallet trucks. Later on that same year, Crown began their first London operation located 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 and advertising lift trucks across Europe through autonomous dealers.
These days, Crown manufactures a massive fleet of electric lift trucks. The company's supplier network, situated 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.
