Jim Umpleby, chairman and CEO of Caterpillar, stated, “Our success over the past 100 years is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our employees, the continued trust of our customers, and the support of our dealers and business partners.” “I am proud to lead such a strong team, and I’m confident Caterpillar will continue to help our customers build a better, more sustainable world over the next 100 years.”
There were festivities in Peoria, Illinois, and Sanford, North Carolina. As Caterpillar embarks on its voyage into the next century, the families of the firm’s founders, C.L. Best and Benjamin Holt, will join company executives and staff at the company’s global headquarters in Irving, Texas, to commemorate the first century of innovation.
In order to give staff and guests an engaging and immersive experience, the Centennial World Tour set out to tour Caterpillar facilities across the globe. Additionally, the business is celebrating the milestone by offering limited-edition ‘Centennial Grey’ painted motorcycles for sale in 2025.
Throughout the year, Caterpillar extends an invitation to its global workforce, clients, and stakeholders to participate in the celebration of its 100th anniversary.
