Mission
Solid Foundations Anyone who’s ever built anything in their life knows that the key to it standing the test of time is its foundation. That’s as true for a business as it is for a structure. In business, solid foundations are built from smart business practices, strong ethics and reliable partners. Offering you the best-built, most dependable products and support solutions; that’s just the price of entry as far as we’re concerned. To earn your trust and keep your business, FABCO goes above and beyond, forging real, lasting partnerships with those we have the privilege to work with. Our values provide the basis for how we conduct every aspect of our business – they're something all of us at FABCO take very seriously.
A HERITAGE THAT BEGAN IN 1917 FABCO’s experience with the sales and service of equipment and engines dates back to 1917 when John Fabick Sr. founded the first Fabick Company in St. Louis, Missouri. Originally, the company merchandised Cletrac crawler tractors and John Deere farm implements. In 1921, John Fabick expanded his business to include tractors manufactured by C.L. Best. Four years later, Best and Holt merged to form Caterpillar Tractor Co. This historic tradition turned north in 1982 when Caterpillar® consolidated dealer territories in Wisconsin and Upper Michigan and awarded representation of its products and services to one experienced dealership. The newly formed FABCO Equipment Inc. was founded by Joseph G. Fabick, John’s son. Today, principal ownership of FABCO is controlled by Jeré C. Fabick, son of Joseph Fabick, and since 2002, FABCO’s President and CEO.
“
We’ve built our business on a very straightforward philosophy; treat people with respect, focus on building long-term relationships, and always provide superior value. Jeré Fabick, President & CEO FABCO Equipment Inc.
