Prospect Group

Prospect is a privately held manufacturing company headquartered in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, with a rich heritage dating back to 1945. Founded originally as Prospect Mold & Die Company by William P. Wright, William Dalcher, and Walter Nagel, the company began operations in a modest garage on Prospect Avenue with no cranes or running water. Through strategic investments and acquisitions - including the pivotal 1997 acquisition of Akromold - Prospect evolved from a local mold shop into a global leader in production composite and metallic machining, as well as tooling solutions.

Today, Prospect serves diverse industries including Aerospace, Defense, Automotive, Building Products, Housewares, and Heavy Truck markets. The company operates state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities equipped with the latest machining and inspection equipment, enabling tight-tolerance production for complex composite parts. Their engineering capabilities leverage advanced software including Unigraphics-NX and Catia V5 for tooling design. Prospect's proprietary PDC (Prospect Data Center) manages project information centrally and was recognized as "Best in Class" by Ford Motor Company among 10,000 tooling suppliers in 2013. The company holds AS9100D, ISO 9001, and ITAR certifications, and is approved by major aerospace primes including Boeing and Lockheed Martin.
