Giles & Ransome, Inc. was founded in 1916 by Arthur Giles and Percy Ransome, Sr. and became the region’s Caterpillar dealer in 1932. Throughout the years, Ransome CAT has continuously grown and is now a full-line Caterpillar dealer serving eastern Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey and northern Delaware.

Giles & Ransome, which remains the corporate name, is our construction sales & service division. “G&R” serves the construction industry with the full Caterpillar construction equipment product line, which includes a complete line of compact construction products and work tools.

Ransome Engine is a Caterpillar Power Systems Distributor (PSD) and represents Caterpillar’s entire engine (truck, marine, electric power generation and generator rental) product offerings.

Ransome Rents, our Rental Services Division, provides a complete line of rental service products for short-term rental needs and offers a wide variety of contractor supplies and safety equipment for the construction industry.

Ransome CAT and its divisions currently operate out of 13 convenient locations and employ over 600 people. Our significant investments in people, facilities and product support capabilities, combined with the world class manufacturing and support of Caterpillar, is the reason we remain the number one equipment distributor in the Tri-State area that you can depend on…today and tomorrow. That's the Ransome tradition!
