Landoll Inducted Into AEM Hall Of Fame

Don Landoll, chairman of Landoll Corp., has been elected as an inductee into the Association of Equipment Manufacturers’ (AEM) Hall of Fame for 2011.

Landoll was born an inventor and has designed and manufactured innovative machinery. In 1963, he opened a welding, blacksmith, and radiator repair shop. In 1967, the production of agricultural products with the Landoll brand began. By 1970, Landoll had designed and patented a unique, innovative trailer that eventually changed the way many transport companies conducted their business. This trailer was capable of ground loading and off-loading equipment, and was known as the traveling axle.

Under Landoll’s leadership, the company continues to improve and expand its product lines. Landoll offers products for many segments — agriculture, construction, towing, forklift and military. Landoll is the largest employer in its community, and Don Landoll and his employees have a culture of service, participating in many charitable organizations. Landoll actively supports industry and business interests to help ensure the strength of manufacturing in his state.

The AEM Hall of Fame, recognizes and honors the accomplishments of those who have led the off-road equipment industry and contributed to its growth.
