After serving in France during WWI, Charles Suter founded The Suter Company in 1925 with a tremendous work ethic, strong sense of Integrity, and a simple desire to start his own business. During its humble beginnings the Company moved from the original farm in Palatine, to Genoa, to downtown Sycamore before finally constructing the original portion of the May Street production facility in Sycamore, IL in 1947.
