So, we roll up our sleeves and dig in. Together, we’re Equipped to Do More.®

Vermeer began in 1943 in a small farm in Pella, Iowa. Gary Vermeer used a mechanical hoist to modify a farm wagon. The subsequent popularity and demand for this product led him to establish the Vermeer Manufacturing Company in 1948; Gary saw a gap in the market, and invented the tool to fill it.

STRIVING TO DO MORE…

STRIVING TO DO MORE…

Since then Vermeer has always been striving to do more. Researching, designing, and manufacturing innovative products for niche markets that help get tough work done.

Since that day in 1948, the second and third generations of the Vermeer family have built on what Gary started and helped to turn it into the market-changing powerhouse it is today. Each new generation brings with them a refreshed focus on innovation and a passion for to honour the company’s legacy.

From the world’s first large mechanical round hay balers, tree spades, and stump cutters, we’re still proudly manufacturing the iconic yellow iron seen on industrial jobsites and farm fields worldwide. Today, Vermeer stands with nearly 3,000 team members across 600 dealerships worldwide with our headquarters remaining in the heart of the United States as they have been for over 70 years.

Despite this expansion, Vermeer is still very much a family business and have retained our unique culture of exceeding expectations, advancing products, and giving back to communities.
