In 1925, Holt Manufacturing Company and C.L. Best Tractor Co. merged to form the Caterpillar Tractor Company. Prior to the merger, Holt had a contract to sell track-type tractors to the government during World War I. The contract allowed Holt to sell a significant number of machines with an acute focus on production. While Holt focused on the war effort, Best gained customers in the United States’ with new and innovative designs. Following the war, Holt had a worldwide reputation and modern manufacturing facilities while Best had a domestic presence, an advanced dealer network and expanded product line. The merger provided the company with funds and technological resources to invest in diesel technology designed to provide customers with more economical horsepower. The rest, they say, is history.
