Company History:
Today, two CHANNELLOCK facilities in Meadville provide more than 200,000 square feet of manufacturing, warehousing and office space. Channellock, Inc. manufactures more than 120 different sizes and types of pliers and other hand tools, while employing nearly 500 full-time associates. It is the largest industrial employer in Crawford County, Pennsylvania. CHANNELLOCK has over 4,000 wholesale and retail customers in the United States, and ships to customers in 45 countries around the globe.
The fifth generation of the DeArment family now helps guide our path and prepares to lead the company’s growth well into the 21st century. Jonathan S. DeArment currently serves as vice-president of manufacturing and engineering; Joan DeArment Sweeney is our director of corporate development and Ryan W. DeArment serves as Director of National Accounts. Jon, Joanie and Ryan are the children of president and CEO, William S. DeArment. And, as Bill likes to say “the sixth generation has landed,” referring to Jonathan’s children, William, Katelyn and Lauren; and Joanie’s sons, Bainer and Benjamin.
George B. DeArment founded the Champion Bolt & Clipper Company with a firm belief in four guiding principles: the belief that good management is never far from the factory floor; that people are more important than machines; that bigger doesn’t always mean better; and that dedication to excellence is the surest way to surmount adversity and to prosper.
For over 119 years, Channellock, Inc. has held firm to those four basic tenets and has become a jewel of the American free enterprise system by doing so.
