Alban Family History. 7 /6 /05.doc.
ALBAN TRACTOR CO., INC.
WINCHESTER, VA.
Alban Tractor Co., Inc. was established as a Caterpillar Dealer in 1927 by Jim Alban.
The business remains a family business and has grown to over 700 employees with
locations in Virginia, Maryland and Delaware. James C. Alban IV (Jamie) assumed
ownership in 1994 and is the only U.S. Caterpillar Dealer in the fourth generation of
family ownership.
Alban has been in Frederick County since 1984 with current operations in the Stonewall
Industrial Park and has grown from 16 employees in 1999 to 26 current employees. Sales
in 2004 were approximately $21.2M. The rapid growth in business has caused Alban to
outgrow its current facility. Alban looked at sites in both West Virginia and Virginia
before settling on the new site in the White Hall Business Park.
The new facility will be 85,000 square feet on 20 acres and will have machine sales and
rental service (truck and earthmoving) and parts operations. Sales are expected to
increase to approximately $31M within several years as employment grows to
approximately 55 people.
