Carrico Implement Company Ellsworth

Paul and Helen Carrico founded Carrico Implement, a Minneapolis Moline dealership, in Beloit, Kansas in 1955. It was the smallest of 9 dealerships in Mitchell County at the time. Their daughter Joan and her husband Ron relocated from Wichita to Beloit in 1963 when Ron joined his in-laws in the family business. The Ford line of equipment was added at that time with other short lines including Versatile, White Farm Equipment, Krause & Great Plains to follow.
