Tigercat ships 4000th Machine
PARIS, ON, April 25, 2003 - On April 2, 2003 Tigercat reached another
milestone. About a hundred employees braved the brisk morning cold, gathering at
140 Consolidated Drive to see off the 4000th Tigercat, a 240B loader. The
machine was bound for G&S Equipment in Prattville, Alabama.
Tony Iarocci,
Tigercat’s president attributes the industry unprecedented growth to
"constant innovation and unparalleled engineering expertise, a wide and
expanding product line and in house manufacturing capability. At Tigercat we
have the opportunity to build versus buy. This increases our manufacturing
quality and flexibility. Anyone who has toured the Tigercat facilities can
attest to our steel fabrication and machining capabilities."
Tigercat has over twenty base models in its stable. Tigercat has always been
willing to build variations and special machines to suit specific customer
requirements. Again, it’s the flexibility attained by in-house fabricating
that allows this to occur. Counting some of these variations, Tigercat builds
upwards of thirty different machines.
"Superior product support has also helped end users to feel comfortable
buying Tigercat machines. The personal attention to customers’ service issues
has created a great deal of confidence and good will," explains Iarocci
"It has enabled us to build and sell more machines than might have been
otherwise possible."
