Fiat-Case New Holland - History timeline

1895: New Holland Machine Company is founded in Pennsylvania specializing in agricultural equipment.

1907: Ford Motor Company builds the prototype of what is to be the world's first mass-produced agricultural tractor.

1917: Mass-production of Ford's first agricultural tractor, the Fordson model F, begins.

1910: Werkhuizen Leon Claeys, founded in 1906, builds its factory in Zedelgem, Belgium, to manufacture harvesting machinery. The company is best known for the Clayson Brand of Combines.

1919: The first mass-produced Fiat tractors, the 702, comes off the assembly line.

1933: The production of Fordson tractors moves to Dagenham, Essex, U.K from Cork in Ireland

1947: Hesston is founded in Kansas, a small but respected manufacturer of hay and forage machinery recognized for its innovative products, with industrial and marketing offshoots in Europe. The Sperry Corporation acquires New Holland Machine Company, forming Sperry New Holland. Hydraulic Engineering Company is formed in Toronto, Canada, and begins production of Versatile small size agricultural implements.

1952: Claeys launches the first European self-propelled combine harvester.

1963: Hydraulic Engineering Company is incorporated as a public company with the name of Versatile Manufacturing Ltd.

1964: Sperry New Holland purchases a major interest in Claeys, now one of the largest combine manufacturers in Europe. Sperry New Holland launches the haybine mower-conditioner; model 460, capable of accomplishing what previously required two or three machines, thus introducing a significant innovation in hay harvesting technology. Ford Tractor operations move to Basildon, Essex, UK

1966: Versatile, operating out of Winnipeg, Canada becomes a leading company in the manufacture of huge four-wheel-drive tractors of over 200HP.

Late 1960s: Fiat creates separate Tractors and Earthmoving Machinery Divisions (Fiat Trattori and Fiat Macchine Movimento Terra).

1971: Production of construction equipment starts at the Fiat plant in Belo Horizonte, Brazil.

1974: Fiat Macchine Movimento Terra creates a joint venture with the American manufacturer Allis Chalmers Corporation, called Fiat-Allis. Fiat Trattori S.p.a. is founded.

1975: Fiat Trattori becomes a shareholder of Laverda. Ford begins manufacture and assembly of Ford tractors in São Paulo, Brazil.

1975: Braud produces its first grape harvester, specialises in this field and quickly becomes the world leader for these machines.

1977: Fiat Trattori takes over Hesston, thus gaining entry into the North American market and introducing Fiat tractors as Hesstons. Fiat Trattori takes over Agrifull, which specialises in small-medium size tractors. The Versatile Manufacturing Ltd. takes the name Versatile Farm Equipment Company, division of Versatile Corp.

1984: Fiat Trattori becomes Fiatagri, Fiat Group's holding company for the agricultural machinery sector. Fiatagri acquires 75% of Braud shares through Laverda.

1986: Ford Motor Company acquires Sperry New Holland, merges it with its Ford Tractor Operations and names the new company Ford New Holland.

1988: All of Fiat-Allis and Fiatagri's activities merge to form a new company, FiatGeotech, Fiat Group's farm and earthmoving machinery sector. Within this major restructuring, Hesston and Braud join forces in a new company, Hesston-Braud, based in Coex, France.

1991: Fiat Group acquires Ford New Holland, Inc., merges it with FiatGeotech and names the new company N.H.Geotech, thus starting a complex process of integration of all the companies which through this operation have come to be gathered under the CHN Global brand name. Versatile Farm Equipment Company becomes part of Ford New Holland Americas, N.H. Geotech's North American division.

1993: N.H.Geotech changes its name to New Holland, thus marking the end of a transition period. After a very successful year for both joint ventures, F.H. Construction Equipment is merged with Fiat-Hitachi Excavators. The resulting joint venture thus covers New Holland's whole product range in the earthmoving sector.

1994: At its Worldwide Convention held in London, New Holland makes official the completion of its integration process and presents to the world its new corporate identity.

1996: A new joint venture set up with Iveco and Cummins - known as European Engine Alliance - is to become New Holland's centre of excellence for engines.

In November, shares of New Holland N.V. began trading on the New York Stock Exchange.

1997: New Holland completes its purchase of Ford Motor Credit Company's partnership interests in the two joint ventures that provide financing for New Holland's products in the United States and Canada. New Holland signs an agreement with the leading manufacturer Manitou, for the design and production of a New Holland range of telescopic handlers.

1998: In India, New Holland completes the construction of its new plant for the manufacture of tractors in the 35 - 75 HP ranges, and production begins.

New Holland Finance expands its activities from the UK to other European markets, starting with Italy, France and Germany.

1999: CNH was created in November 1999 through the business merger of Case Corporation and New Holland N.V. Revenues in 2000 were over $10 billion. CNH's financial services have a global portfolio of $10.6 billion.
