Henke History
Where We Started…
Edward Henke
Henke Industrial's legacy traces back to the 1920s when Edward Henke established a furniture and shipping store in Cincinnati, Ohio. This venture evolved into Henke Paper and Woodenware in the 1950s, under Edward's leadership, serving the Northern Kentucky and Ohio markets. In the 1970s, his son, Paul Henke, took the reins, transitioning the business towards logistics and delivery services.
Paul Henke
In the early 1990s, Jerry Henke, embodying the family's strong Germanic values, recognized the need for high-quality industrial services. With over 30 years of experience in industrial relocation, Jerry founded Henke Industrial, focusing on providing comprehensive solutions with a personal touch. His commitment to integrity, technical expertise, and community engagement laid the foundation for the company's growth.
