HISTORY
The 1950’s were a pivotal point in our country’s history, marked by a sharp rise in the economy for the first time in over 30 years. While Caterpillar had representation in Virginia dating back to 1928 through Virginia Tractor Company, the ever increasing activity in western Virginia thanks to infrastructure developments and coal mining, demanded a greater focus. As a result, Carter Machinery was formed to serve customers in southwestern Virginia.
