The two companies entered into a strategic partnership, which developed into a success story that continues to this day.
                        
For nearly 90 years, Caterpillar Inc. has driven progress and promoted positive and sustainable change on every continent. Caterpillar is the world's leading manufacturer of construction and mining equipment, diesel and natural gas engines, industrial gas turbines and diesel-electric locomotives.
