Crown Forklift Part
Crown Forklift Parts - 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 on that year. Currently, his son, James F. Dicke II, is Chairman and CEO. James F. Dicke III, serves as the company Head these days, becoming the fourth generation of the Dicke family to maintain this position.
Crown initially started with a small clientèle producing 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, Ohio, where Crown's head office presently remain.
In 1949, responding to the public's increasing interest in TV, Crown moved into the assembly of antenna rotators. This product was utilized to enhance TV reception and picture quality. The company's successful move enabled 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 a number of successful bids within a short period of time, the company had built a respectable business in this field.
With such adaptability and achievement, Crown was able to expand its production to incorporate material handling equipment. Crown started the assembly of forklifts and lift vehicles in 1957. The company believed the market demanded a smaller line of superior quality lift trucks. Crown promptly created an exceptional series of progressive equipment and swiftly became the most rapidly evolving materials handling company with its range of merchandise.
By 1966, Crown had ventured into the international material handling markets by opening up shop in Sydney, Australia. Sydney is currently a regional headquarters for Crown for all Pacific Asian sales, marketing, and services. Crown remains an unwavering market leader today, supported by exceptional service, solid sales and strong production 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 began to build PTH hand pallet trucks. Later on 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 autonomous dealers.
Crown at the moment has a huge 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.

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 production facilities in Sydney, Australia (since 1966); Queretaro, Mexico (since 1973); Roding, Germany (since 1986); and Suzhou, China (since 2006).
