Regal Manufacturing Co. company history timeline

1957

In 1957 Taylor acquired Crest Tool Industries, a cutting tool company that specialized in providing tools to United States government purchasing agencies, and two years later Beloit Tool had passed the $100 million sales level.

1973

In 1973 Taylor officially changed Beloit Tool's name to Regal-Beloit (after, some said, a type of flower) and continued his strategy of expanding its market share and diversifying its business niche by acquiring promising companies in its basic power transmission and cutting tools lines.

1978

Turning to the power transmission segment, in mid-1978, Taylor purchased Orbmark Company, the developer of a high-torque, low-speed hydraulic motor, and a year later he brought James Packard, a seasoned corporate manager from PepsiCo's Frito-Lay division, on board Regal-Beloit's management team.

1979

In expectation of the huge sales potential of foreign markets, in 1979 Taylor also unveiled Regal-Beloit International Sales Corporation, which he headquartered in the firm's Beloit offices.

1986

After three decades at Regal-Beloit's helm, Taylor finally relinquished the chairmanship to Packard in 1986.

1990

In May 1990, Regal-Beloit broke ground on a new $2.4 million world headquarters building in downtown Beloit, signaling its aim to return to its original Wisconsin roots after 27 years on the other side of the Illinois border.

1991

A4. "Newest 'Kid' on a Super Block," Beloit Daily News, April 24, 1991, special issue on Regal-Beloit Corporation.

1992

With sales arcing past $152 million, two more acquisitions--hydraulic pump drive manufacturers Hub City, Inc. of Aberdeen, South Dakota, in April 1992 and Terrell Gear Drives, Inc. of Charlotte, North Carolina, in November--boosted Regal-Beloit's sales to $199.8 million by year-end.

1993

By the end of 1993 Regal-Beloit's total sales had edged up to $220 million.

1996

Buying only bug-free products from reliable dealers, Regal-Beloit by 1996 was saving $3 million annually on equipment purchases.

2001

GAA found its stride in the Third-Party Logistics arena, and ARD grew by expanding to Alabama to support Mercedes Benz in 2001.

2004
