MacLean-Fogg Company (“MacLean-Fogg”), a leading family-owned manufacturing enterprise, and Mallard Manufacturing (“Mallard”), a provider of custom gravity flow storage solutions, jointly announce MacLean-Fogg’s acquisition of the Mallard business.
Mallard was founded in 1960 in Sterling, Illinois, by Jack Wahl of the Wahl Clipper family. The business was acquired by Kevin Risch and Michael Gunderson in 2007. Under their leadership, Mallard has grown to become the leading designer and manufacturer of high-quality, innovative pallet flow, carton flow, and gravity conveyor solutions for warehouses, manufacturing plants, and distribution centers across a broad range of industries.
“We are thrilled to welcome the Mallard team into the MacLean-Fogg family,” said Duncan MacLean, President & CEO. “Mallard’s reputation for excellence, its high level of commitment to its customers, and its family-oriented culture align extremely well with our values and make it a terrific platform for making additional investments.”
“We see tremendous potential in joining forces with MacLean-Fogg and believe our partnership will enable us to continue growing the business and serving our customers with innovative, high-quality solutions in the coming years,” said Kevin Risch.
MacLean-Fogg’s investment in Mallard represents a strategic move to expand its portfolio of manufacturing platforms and diversify into new industries. Mallard will operate as a distinct platform within the MacLean-Fogg organization, maintaining its current leadership team and day-to-day operational structure to ensure continuity for employees, customers and suppliers.
