History

 

Subject’s history can be traced back to 1887, when at the very young age of 15, Howard W. Goodall quit school to work at a Philadelphia rubber distributor, Latta and Mulconroy. An inherent tinkerer, Goodall soon developed a range of couplings which could be sold as an accessory to their hose line. This resulted in a successful and profitable new business for Latta and Mulconroy Company. Later, H.W. Goodall with the blessings of Mr. Mulconroy, founded the Goodall Rubber Company and also started the Knox Manufacturing Company in order to manufacture couplings and clamps. The Dixon Valve and Coupling Company was founded on March 21st 1916 by Mr. H.W. Goodall. Mr. H.W. Goodall passed away in 1951 and his son R.B. Goodall became the President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company. Subject continued to grow and prosper under his leadership.


Through the 1960s, and 70s, Dixon continued to grow by adding branch locations through the United States. In 1976, Subject moved from its facilities at 2nd and Columbia in Philadelphia to historic Chestertown, Maryland which still serves as subject’s global headquarters till date. Mr. R. B. Goodall passed away in 1994 and his son Mr. R. L. Goodall took over as President and Chief Operating Officer. Subject today is a fast growing international company, with global offices / manufacturing facilities in USA, Canada, Mexico, UK, Germany, Australia, India, China and Russia. Subject is committed to maintaining its role as a leading innovator in the hose and coupling industry.
