A History of the
Waupaca Elevator Company
|
|
In 1957, Waupaca
Elevator Company, Inc., built its first elevators
and dumbwaiters in Waupaca, Wisconsin with a staff
of 6 employees. Demand grew, and in 1998 the company
moved to a larger facility in Appleton, Wisconsin.
After only four years, the company's continued
growth created the opportunity to move to its
current location which has room for future
expansion. Today, Waupaca Elevator employs over 70
employees who produce beautiful residential
elevators and dumbwaiters.
The images at

Waupaca Elevator Plant. |
