Gericke USA is marking its 10th anniversary of operations, having served North American food manufacturers since establishing its New Jersey headquarters in 2015.
The company supplies industrial mixers, pneumatic conveyors, lump breakers and other bulk material handling equipment to manufacturers across the U.S., Mexico and Canada. Gericke USA operates as the North American subsidiary of Switzerland-based Gericke Group, which has maintained continuous family ownership for more than 130 years.
Gericke Group serves food, dairy, chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturers from nine facilities across Europe, Asia, South America and North America.
"Looking back at our first 10 years in New Jersey, I'm filled with pride and deep gratitude for the dedication of our team and the trust of our customers," said managing director and CEO Markus H. Gericke, who received the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year award recognizing commitment to quality, innovation and growth for a family-owned company. "We're fully committed to supporting our customers in North America for many decades to come."
The Somerset facility provides technical engineering, maintenance and plant automation services, and houses a testing laboratory equipped with powder processing equipment. The company has added staff positions and is expanding its sales and engineering teams to address increased customer demand.
