Greig Equipment Company was founded in 1968 by Richard A. and Helen M. Greig. Richard Greig had already acquired 17 years of experience in the industry, a loyal following of friends and a family of five children who were able to assist him with the business. The Greigs taught their five children the value of hard work, quality and "getting it right the first time". Their only son, Richard S. Greig, a 1972 marketing graduate of Penn State University, has headed the organization since 1977, when his father passed away. In 1980, R.S. Greig replaced the company's inventory of steel-framed scaffolding with a new JLG 40-foot telescopic boom lift -- the single largest equipment purchase in the company's history. During Greig Company's consistent growth, it has been involved in the community earning recognition as a Junior Partner from the Presque Isle Partnership and receiving the United Way Bronze and Silver Awards. Greig Company prides itself on quality and the ability to keep up with the fast-track pace that customers demand. In the last 20 years, Service Manager, Robin Matthews has earned respect filling orders carefully -- and for emergency orders, frequently in less than one hour. Greig's technicians receive updated equipment training yearly at factory schools and customers receive on-site training in lift usage. Richard A. Greig's values, combined with the past and present efforts of hard-working employees and customers, continue to drive the company and benefit the region.
