Seventy years of success didnโt just happen for Gregory Poole Equipment Company. The North Carolina Caterpillar dealershipโs success has come from being well-grounded as an organization from its founding in 1951 and from being able to adapt to evolving โ sometimes abruptly changing โ circumstances. Company President Gregory Poole III characterized the mostly ups and occasional downs experienced by the dealership during his watch as โa fun and rewarding journey.โ Thatโs an upbeat lookback at a contemporary period of the companyโs history that included deep and persistent troughs in the national economy and the current disruption caused by the ongoing pandemic.
