Company Information

Heico has a history of success. Since its founding over 40 years ago The
Heico Companies has grown from a single business to over 78 separate
companies through a strategic acquisition policy, and by reinvesting its
earnings into internal growth and new prospects. Historically talented
at restoring distressed companies, Heico strategically targets
acquisitions that will complement its ever-growing portfolio of
companies in manufacturing, construction, and industrial services.

These four core operations are organized into groups: Applied Solutions
Group, Construction Solutions Group, Industrial Technologies Group, and

to a group and run on a stand-alone basis, allowing for great

Heico groups and companies.

Heico continues to seek out new opportunities and maintain its standard

since its creation and maintains a majority ownership in each of its
