About Seller: The achievements of the Garthwait family exemplify the strong work ethic and entrepreneurial spirit often associated with the Connecticut Yankee. Line Manufacturing, Inc. has evolved from its humble beginnings in 1932, when Ralph and Clyde Garthwait founded the company in a two-car garage with minimal investment. Over the years, they transformed the business into a reliable supplier of specialized precision metal stampings, expanding their operations and capabilities. Despite facing challenges such as the death of one founder and the absence of others due to wartime service, the firm persevered under the leadership of Helen Garthwait. Today, Line Manufacturing continues to thrive under the guidance of third-generation family members Bruce Garthwait, Joseph Garthwait, Jr., and Gregory Garthwait, operating out of a 20,000 square foot facility in Wolcott, Connecticut. Their dedication to customer service and commitment to excellence have contributed to the company's success and growth, challenging any doubts about the capabilities of American industry to compete on a global scale.
