Decker Manufacturing Company was established in 1878 by “Captain” A.C. Decker, in Bushnell Illinois. He moved the company from Bushnell to Keokuk, Iowa in 1884 and operated in a plant on the levee until 1910. He then built a plant at 312 Blondeau Street. Construction was completed in 1911. Decker continues to operate in this building today. Decker originally manufactured barbed wire, but as markets changed it was necessary to diversify and begin expanding into agricultural products. Decker innovation in the agricultural market has resulted in multiple patents and product improvements especially in the hog ring and curry comb product lines. To this day, Decker Manufacturing is known as the premier supplier of the best American-made agricultural and equine products available
