Wil-Rich

Wil-Rich evolved from a small two-man shop making truck hoists to one of the industry leaders in farm tillage equipment. Ed Schleuter, a blacksmith from Lehr, North Dakota, designed and built a truck hoist that could withstand the rigors of modern farming in the 1960s. A group of businessmen from Wahpeton, North Dakota, purchased this small upstart and named it Wil-Rich - from the names of Wilkin and Richland counties, where operations were based. Wil-Richis a leading provider of agricultural equipment worldwide.
