About Us

OUR STORY

Roach Manufacturing Corporation was founded in 1953 by Gay Roach Sr.

Originally, the company's sole purpose was to design and build a line of heavy-duty highly-specialized conveyors for weighing, transporting and storing heavy, bulky bales of cotton. The company continued to heavily rely upon this manufacturing concern until 1971, when the company began to market itself as Roach Conveyors.

In the 1980s and 1990s, Roach Conveyors continued to grow and evolve, responding to changing customer needs and advances in technology. During this time, the company introduced new materials and manufacturing processes, and developed new products, such as hygienic conveyors for the food processing industry. Roach Conveyors also increased its investment in research and development, and worked to improve the efficiency and performance of its conveyor systems.

Since 1953 Roach Conveyors has emerged as one of the most innovative conveyor manufacturers in the world. Over the last 70 years we have developed a multitude of systems ranging from basic transportation to highly specialized equipment engineered to perform detailed tasks.
