Fecon: Partnering with LFM for Next Level Growth

Here we introduce Fecon CEO Bob Dieckman and Senior VP Mark Middendorf. In choosing LFM, Fecon founder John Heekin was looking for a partner that would help take the company to the next level while remaining focused on operational excellence.  LFM worked with Fecon to facilitate a seamless leadership transition to allow John Heekin to exit the business knowing that his legacy was intact and company culture would be preserved. 

Fecon is the leading manufacturer of heavy-duty forestry mulching equipment and related accessories in North America. Fecon’s products are used for vegetation management, erosion control, general land clearing and habitat restoration.  

Fecon CEO Bob Dieckman says that LFM’s passion for manufacturing and improvement is infectious and has spread through the organization at Fecon. He notes that the partnership with LFM is “leading to bigger and better things for Fecon.”

As LFM Managing Director Dan Shockley says, “we have a passion for manufacturing and that passion brings itself into everything we do.” Here at LFM we believe that small manufacturing companies provide the foundation and infrastructure for our country’s critical supply chains  and we will continue to look for opportunities, like Fecon, to grow and build on that foundation.
