NACCO Industries Company Description
An unlikely combination of coal mines, toasters, and forklifts propels NACCO Industries. The holding company's independent operating subsidiaries do business in a diverse set of industries. North American Coal mines lignite coal in the US and sells it to utilities. NACCO Materials Handling Group makes Hyster and Yale lift trucks and parts. Its Hamilton Beach (formerly Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex) and Kitchen Collection subsidiaries are leading US producers of small kitchen appliances and housewares. NACCO Industries got its start back in 1913 as The Cleveland & Western Coal Company and has since diversified its business through acquisitions.
