United States.
The company, together with its wholly-owned sub¬
sidiary, Fruehauf Trailer Co. of Canada, Ltd., manufactures and sells
approximately 50 different types of truck-trailers and accessories, parts
and services.
Fruehauf Trailer Finance Co., a wholly-owned subsidiary,
finances instalment sales
of the company's products and since its
inception in 1948 has grown to rank among the nation's largest instal¬
ment finance companies.
Thirteen manufacturing plants are located

Annual sales during the last five years
increased from $151,612,000 in 1951 to $234,612,000 in 1955, the highest
annual volume in the company's history.
The increased sales volume
reflects new developments made by the company in the construction of
trailer equipment including the new Volume Van line; and the growing
needs of the transportation industry for over-the-high-way and railroad
"Piggy Back" equipment.
This increased sale volume has required
additional working capital for the purposes of carrying increased in¬
ventories and financing sales of the company's product and also has
required substantial expenditures for additional plant facilities.
Ihitially, part of the proceeds from today's offering will be used to reduce
