On Saturday, June 21, 2025 – Bodine Electric Company held their 120th Anniversary Celebration at the company’s headquarters in Peosta, Iowa. Current and past employees from both the Peosta factory and the Northfield, Illinois factory – along with their family members – were invited to attend the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fun was had by all! Even in the summer heat everyone enjoyed a wonderful BBQ lunch, a self-guided tour of the factory, and plenty of activities for the kids to enjoy. 120 years is certainly a milestone to be proud of. Each and every team member of Bodine Electric Company – past and present – contributed to the company’s longevity and success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
