R. Davis Taylor initially built a small electric-powered cart for personal use in his poultry supply business. After receiving inquiries from other ranchers about the little cart, he decided to build a few of the carts for friends and neighbors. He built a 30-foot by 60-foot sheet metal facility on the orange grove adjacent to his home on Ball Road, in Anaheim, California. The year was 1949 and the business was named the “Taylor Shop.”

In 1951, Fred Dunn joined the business and several years later the company changed its name to Taylor-Dunn Manufacturing Company. Before long, the company began making and selling vehicles to hundreds of ranchers and to nurseries from San Diego to Simi Valley.
