Prince Industries Snapshot
Our Story
Prince Industries started in 1959 with one person and a big vision. Founder Ed Miller opened a small machine shop just outside Chicago, Illinois, focused on craftsmanship, reliability, and customer trust — values that still define us today.
As demand grew, so did our team and our capabilities. In 1977, we expanded into sheet metal fabrication, and by the early 1980s, we were investing in CNC technology to stay ahead of the curve. Our growth led to a move to Carol Stream, IL, in 1997, where we built a larger, state-of-the-art facility designed to support both our people and our customers.
In 2006, we launched QP Hydraulics, opening new opportunities in the mobile and industrial hydraulics markets. Most recently, between 2022 and 2023, we welcomed four new aerospace-focused facilities — two in Florida, one in Vermont, and one in Massachusetts — bringing new expertise and talented team members into the Prince family.
Today, Prince operates seven manufacturing facilities across the U.S. and China. Our hundreds of employees are the heart of who we are — skilled, dedicated professionals who take pride in delivering quality, precision, and innovation every day.
At Prince, growth isn’t just about expanding facilities — it’s about creating opportunities for our people. We believe in investing in our team, celebrating achievements, and building a workplace where everyone has a hand in shaping the future.
