## Company history

Valmont Industries traces its origins to 1946, when founder Robert B. Daugherty acquired Valley Manufacturing Company, a farm-equipment business. In 1954, the company’s Valley irrigation business licensed the center-pivot irrigation patent developed by Frank Zybach, marking an important expansion into mechanized irrigation. Valmont became publicly traded in 1968 and entered the transportation market in 1970, broadening its business into infrastructure products. [5](https://www.valmont.com/company) [31](https://www.valleyirrigation.com/history) [1](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P90063343) [32](https://webassetsprod.valmont.com/valmontproduction/docs/librariesprovider105/brochures/transportation-brochure.pdf?sfvrsn=4ddc0c39_8)

In 1991, Valmont acquired an 80% interest in Canadian aluminum-pole producer Lampadaires Feralux. In 2021, it acquired Prospera Technologies, adding artificial-intelligence and machine-learning capabilities for agricultural monitoring and irrigation optimization. Avner M. Applbaum became president and chief executive officer in July 2023.
