HISTORY OF RADIO LINE WAGONS

 

Radio Flyer is an American toy company best known for its popular red toy wagons. Radio Flyer also produces scooters, tricycles, bicycles, horses, and ride-ons. The company was founded in 1917 and is based in Chicago, Illinois.

 

The company’s founder Antonio Pasin immigrated to the United States from Italy in 1914 when he was 16 years old. He started building wooden toy wagons in Chicago in 1917, selling them to area shops. He was working as a craftsman at the time, mostly selling phonograph cabinets, and built small wooden wagons to carry around his tools. After he received numerous requests from customers of phonograph cabinets to buy the wagons as well, he refocused his business on the wagons.

 

Pasin formed the Liberty Coaster Company in 1923, named in honor of the Statue of Liberty. The company began making metal wagons out of stamped steel in 1927.

 

In 1930, the company was renamed Radio Steel & Manufacturing. The renamed company produced steel-bodied wagons and used assembly line manufacturing techniques. The new Radio Flyer wagons were named as a tribute to two famous men of the day: Guglielmo Marconi and Charles Lindbergh. Combining those two marvels, Pasin christened his new metal wagons "Radio Flyer."

 

In 1987, Radio Steel changed its name to Radio Flyer after its popular flagship little red wagon. Pasin died in 1990, and his grandson, Robert Pasin, has been CEO since 1997. Today, the company produces a wide range of children's products, including scooters, tricycles, ride-ons, horses, battery ops, and wagons.

 

In 2015, Fortune named Radio Flyer number one in the top 25 best small businesses for which to work.
