Our Company Was Founded On Hard Work & Humble Beginnings
In 1881, Richard Schmidt emigrated from Germany to Atlanta, IL and began to work in a local blacksmith shop. In 1898 he purchased the shop and began to cultivate a legacy that would stretch far into the future of agriculture. Over 100 years and 5-generations later, the company is still family-owned and has over 100 employees.
Family-owned to this day
Active owners are Steve Schmidt, Michael Schmidt, Tim Evans, and Brian Reeser.
