Sparta
Manufacturing Corp. History
Sparta
Manufacturing Corporation was founded in July, 1993 by Gary and Nancy
Strobel as an alternative source of income and also to try to build
a less expensive Hopper Bottom Trailer for the farmer. In 1993,
Sparta manufactured it's first trailer in a small shop in Tallulah,
Louisiana with only himself and one employees.
In
1994 Sparta moved it's operations to Mound, Louisiana just East of
Tallulah on I-20 Hwy at MOUND, LOUISIANA (EXIT 182). Since the move
sales have grown continuously. Sparta has since built over Six Hundred
(600) trailers. The trailers have been sold in thirty states and Mexico.
Sparta's products are considered to be a premium steel trailer in the
industry. Selling at a higher retail against it's competitors. Their
quality of welding and strength of design are what continue to expand
the rapidly growing market. With most components made in the USA, it
is a product that you can be proud to own. Sparta Trailers combine
the best aspects of construction in the USA today. With lengths
of 20' to 53',and heights of 63" to 114" and widths of 96" or
102". With a load capacity of 780 to 3800+ cubic feet, the
all American made trailer will handle your needs very well. Sparta's
main products are Grain Hopper Trailers for use on farming operations.
The trailers are designed primarily for agricultural usage. Sparta
also manufacture Stainless Steel Hopper Trailers for use in the fertilizer industry
and other corrosive products. Other products that we offer are specialty
use high capacity steel trailers and pressurized high slope trailers.
In
1998 Sparta won the prestigious Lantern Award for the
state of Louisiana. In the same year our Four Bolster and Plantation
Style Log Trailers came into being as of Sept. 1998, and with them
came Loader Trailers, and Loader Delimber trailers, Skidder trailers,
and lowboy trailers both 35 ton and 50 ton styles for the Forest Industry.
Also
in 1998 as a result of our high strength Log Trailer frame came Sugar
Cane trailers in a Joint Venture project with Tensas
Machine and Manufacturing Company.
Then
in 1999 came our Bottom Dump or Belly Dump Gravel Trailers as some
people call them. They were added as of November 1999. These Belly
Dump trailers are high quality smooth side trailers to empty easily
with a minimum of material remaining inside because of the smooth interior.
