Dicke III, serves as the company Head these days, becoming the fourth generation of the Dicke descendants to maintain this position.
Crown in the beginning started with a small clientele developing temperature controls that they manufactured for coal burning furnaces. The production of these control items took place in a former hardware store based in New Bremen, Huntington Beach, where Crown's head office currently remain.
By the year 1949, Crown moved into the making of rotators for antenna due the increased fascination with televisions at the time. The product was proficient at improving the picture and reception quality. The company's profitable move enabled them to become a leading producer of units until 2001. The company ceased production in October after a decline in the worldwide demand for television antenna rotators.
In the early 1950's Crown diversified into the manufacturing and restoration of electronic and mechanical machinery for government and private market. After a number of lucrative bids within a brief period of time, the company had developed a reputable business in this field.
With such flexibility and achievement, Crown was able to diversify its production to incorporate material handling equipment. Crown began production of forklifts and lift vehicles in 1957. The company believed the market demanded a smaller line of top-quality quality forklifts.

Crown remains an unwavering industry leader today, supported by exceptional service, solid sales and strong manufacturing operations.
Two years later, Crown had moved into the European markets by buying up an Irish production facility from a German Company, Steinbock. There they began to construct PTH hand pallet trucks. Later on that same year, Crown began their first London operation situated nearby Heathrow Airport. The sales and service operation of Crown's complete forklift line was available in the UK by the end of the decade. In the early 1970's, Crown expanded and began advertising and marketing lift trucks across Europe through autonomous dealers.
