JLG Forklift Parts - Following retirement in the late 1960's, John L. Grove embarked on on a cross country RV voyage. After spending numerous years establishing his family built crane business with his brother, John had no idea that this journey would bring forth the rise of JLG Industries, Inc. The world leader of mobile aerial work platforms and precision material handling technologies was the end consequence of a road trip.
Whilst on their trip, John spent time conversing with past business associates whom the Groves stopped to visit along the way. These conversations combined with a tragic event-two workers being electrocuted on scaffolding when the Groves were going to the Hoover Dam- John discovered a considerable market for a product that could quickly and safely lift people in the air to accomplish maintenance and other building services.
After returning from their vacation, John set up a business with two of his friends and purchased a metal fabrication business in McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania. Opening with a small crew of twenty personnel, they fashioned and sold their first JLG aerial work platform in 1970. The company incorporates some of the simple design essentials of that original lift into current designs.
Since then, JLG Forklifts have come a long way from when Mr. John L. Grove came back from his fatefull cross-country journey and since the first JLG aerial platform entered the market. As of today, the company has expanded itself into quite a few international marketplaces and continues to cultivate new machines to ensure that clients are able to become safer and more well-organized within their workplace.
