The Caldwell Group and J.C. Renfroe announce they have merged. Caldwell, which is located in Rockford, Ill., manufactures below-the-hook lifting equipment, and Renfroe, a plate clamp lifting equipment manufacturer, is headquartered in Jacksonville, Fla. The new organization will provide a broad variety of lifting solutions to global customers.
“This is a great opportunity for two strong companies, with well recognized brands, to partner together.” said Caldwell’s President Doug Stitt. “We are very proud and excited to be a part of Renfroe’s future.”
Caldwell is an employee-owned company. Renfroe will continue to operate as an independent operation under the J.C. Renfroe name and will also become an employee-owned company.
Ron Raymond, Renfroe’s managing director, said, “This is a great opportunity for the Renfroe employees who have built this organization to help continue the Renfroe name and brand but now with ownership in the company’s future operations and success.”
Lift & Access is part of the Catalyst Communications Network publication family.
