Heico has a history of success. Since its founding over 40 years ago, The Heico Companies has grown from a single business to over 78 separate companies through a strategic acquisition policy and by reinvesting its earnings into internal growth and new prospects. Historically talented at restoring distressed companies, Heico strategically targets acquisitions that complement its portfolio in manufacturing, construction, and industrial services. These operations are organized into four groups: Applied Solutions Group, Construction Solutions Group, Industrial Technologies Group, and Metal Processing Group. Once acquired, new Heico companies operate on a stand-alone basis, allowing for independence while sharing knowledge across the organization. Heico remains privately held, with majority ownership in each operation, generating over $3.3 billion in revenues. Many of its businesses are certified Woman-owned Business Enterprises (WBE).
