Prescott Heald & Son, Inc. is a family-owned business that has evolved since its establishment in 1916 in Omaha, Nebraska. Founded by Prescott Heald, the company began by selling Nutting trucks and carts for local fruit and vegetable vendors. Over the years, the business passed through generations, with Prescott's son, Jack, and later, Jack's son, Dave, taking the reins. Under their leadership, Prescott Heald & Son transitioned from a diverse product range to specializing in pallet racking and shelving solutions to meet market demands.
With a strong commitment to quality and service, Prescott Heald & Son now operates two warehouses: one in Omaha and another in Jackson, Michigan. The Omaha facility is over 25,000 square feet, stocked with a variety of new racking systems and a substantial inventory of used pallet racking. Meanwhile, the Jackson warehouse is dedicated to the manufacturing of Rivmax, a line of easy-to-assemble, boltless shelving that further enhances the company’s product offerings.
Throughout its history, Prescott Heald & Son has remained dedicated to providing reliable storage solutions to businesses across all 50 states. The integration of Rivmax into their product line reflects the company’s focus on innovation and efficiency in the industrial shelving space. Today, Dave Heald continues to lead the business, safeguarding its legacy of quality and customer service that has distinguished Prescott Heald & Son for over a century.
