The Idea
Our story begins in early 2001 when Ambrose Hoff and his son Jody, along with Gerald Hauck and his son Doug tinkered with the concept of manufacturing hopper bottom bins in the small rural community of Richardton, ND. The families have long roots in the area, operating family farms near Richardton for generations. After graduating with engineering degrees from NDSU in the early ‘90s and honing their design skills with other companies, Jody and Doug were eager to move back home and try their hands at entrepreneurship.
Pursuing Opportunity
When a tenured manufacturing company closed its doors in town these forward-thinking gentlemen sprung in to action, acquiring property and buildings, and Amber Waves, Inc. was born. The company opened for business in January 2002 and in August the very first hopper bottom bin was manufactured, sold and delivered.
Now
Today, with thousands of Amber Waves smooth wall bins in service across the USA, 20 years in business, and a talented staff, we can assist with every aspect of your project. From design and engineering through manufacturing and delivery, Amber Waves has the knowledge and experience to get it right the first time. Amber Waves, Inc. is proud to be producing in the USA and operates from a 60,000 square foot factory and company headquarters located in the heartland of America.
