Rockford, Illinois
Known as the 'Forest City' and the 'Screw Capital of the World,' Rockford runs on aerospace, advanced manufacturing, and high-volume air cargo - and every one of those operations depends on material handling that doesn't quit. Associated is the single source Winnebago County businesses turn to for Raymond forklifts, warehouse racking, and loading-dock equipment, backed by one of the largest parts and service organizations in the Midwest. Whether you're moving precision aerospace components on an aerospace production line, palletized fasteners off a machine-tool floor, or freight bound for the air-cargo hubs at Chicago Rockford International Airport, we'll spec the right equipment and keep it running.
