Products & Markets
J-Craft Then
J-Craft, Inc. was founded in 1978 in Kimball, MN by Eugene Dick. With innovative designs and a hard-working shop, J-Craft became a well-known name in the mid-west region, serving municipalities and commercial entities alike. In the 1980’s, J-Craft started expanding into municipal snow and ice markets, adding another product line to the vocational dump trucks that J-Craft built. J-Craft became known as the top-of-the-line dump truck manufacturer and installer in Minnesota. In 2005 J-Craft was purchased by TBEI and moved to Lake Crystal, MN, co-located with Crysteel Manufacturing. In 2017, TBEI, including J-Craft, was purchased by Federal Signal Corporation, a public company.
