Modular Fixturing Spurs Growth at Grove

From Bluco Corporation
 

 
Grove Worldwide is a corporate success story many other American companies could do well to emulate. From its inception in 1947 until today, this southcentral Pennsylvania-based organization has grown into a multinational corporation working under three operating businesses: Grove Crane, Grove Manlift, and National Crane. Though initially founded to build farm wagons, Grove has grown into the world's leading manufacturer of mobile hydraulic cranes and self-propelled aerial work platforms for applications ranging from construction and transportation to mining, Petrochemicals, and plant maintenance. Throughout its history, the success of this progressive company has been firmly rooted in the idea of producing the highest quality products at the most competitive prices. To this end, everyone at Grove takes increasing individual productivity and lowering production costs as a personal challenge.
