Local Manufacturer Celebrates 95 Years

  • Thursday, April 14, 2022

When Sherman+Reilly started as an engineering company in April of 1927 in downtown Chattanooga, its founders could not have imagined where the years would take them.  This week, Sherman+Reilly celebrates 95 years in operation, a feat few other companies have accomplished. 

As the engineering and manufacturing leader of North America’s electric utility line equipment, Sherman+Reilly is dedicated to getting every lineman home, every night, no exceptions. For decades Sherman+Reilly has led the industry through many firsts with over 50 patents held or pending, over 5,000 units of powerline installation equipment sold and over 2 million line stringing blocks sold.

“By constantly refocusing on our market, investing in new product development and in the development of our people, while never losing focus on safety, Sherman+Reilly has been able to become the company it is today” said CEO Mike Dunn.

Sherman+Reilly’s innovation of transmission and distribution equipment continues with the all-electric E+ Series and new back-to-basics Heritage line.
