Excellent Customer Service Starts at the Top

Since 1963, founder, owner, and President of Landoll Company, LLC, Don Landoll, has provided a vision for the company focusing on “Customer Comes First” philosophy.

Don’s commitment to customer satisfaction is still very much in effect 55 years later. This approach has helped build the long-standing, stable relationships that Landoll Company, LLC shares with our customers.

Over 55 years ago, Don Landoll and his partner of three years purchased Quick Service Welding which eventually became Landoll Company, LLC. Since then, Landoll has grown to be a leader in innovative design, world-class manufacturing, and marketing of quality products and services for the agriculture, transportation, material handling, OEM and government industries. Since 1963, the Landoll entrepreneurial spirit and business principles including diversification, vertical integration and customer satisfaction have led to substantial growth.

Landoll Company, LLC has shared its success with the community by being good stewards to the area community, renovating and putting into operation several vacated properties. Landoll led the revamp of the now completed Catholic school and playground, airport, Library Park, and a reading garden at the elementary school. Landoll Company, LLC was the largest donor while leading fundraising efforts for the area’s new hospital and is now beginning work on the Catholic church.
