Richards Equipment

Richards was established over 73 years ago in 1937 by Mr. L. K. Dick Richards. Mr. Richards owned & operated the firm until 1972, when he sold the firm to John W. Schoen and his son John E. Schoen. They operated Richards until 1986, when they sold the firm to Steve Wessinger who had previously worked for Richards from 1967 to 1972. Mr. Wessinger rejoined the firm in 1980 and now serves as Chief Executive Officer. Over the years these three owners have had one core business and individual philosophy. The Customer is the Boss.
