As we celebrate America’s 248th birthday and the freedom that makes our country strong, I can’t help but reflect on the men and women who forged a new nation with resilience and the belief in something bigger than themselves. Great Dane was established with the same trailblazing spirit, and with this year being Great Dane’s 124th birthday, we’ve been around for half of our country’s existence. As an American company building American-made trailers and truck bodies, we’re proud that the transportation solutions we provide are an important part of the very fabric of our country, helping people across the Americas thrive and businesses succeed. Today and every day, we’re proud to build upon our legacy of innovation and perseverance for generations to come.

Your Great Dane history for today. Did you know the first trailer we built was a flatbed? That was well over 100 years ago. Did you know the first major acquisition we did was purchasing Arrow Trailers in Memphis? That was over 50 years ago. Great Dane flatbeds for many generations past and many more to come.

Glimpse Into Greatness: The late 1950s was a time of change for our company. By 1958, we officially went from The Steel Products Co to Great Dane Trailers. With this, the iconic Great Dane red was added to the logo. Our name wasn't the only thing that changed. We redesigned our line of van trailers and created a new line of tank trailers, phasing out all structural steel products. #BeGreat #GlimpseIntoGreatness
