Foth has a long, rich history dating back to 1938. Since then, our services, locations, and membership have expanded to meet the changing needs of our clients. Check out some notable milestones from our past. 1938 A young electrical engineer, Herbert S. Foth, organized a small engineering company in Green Bay, Wisconsin. That first year, Foth had four members on the payroll, and our clients included several municipalities in northeast Wisconsin. 1939 – Early 1940s Foth and Patrick Boyd joined forces as Foth and Boyd. The company also began a long-term engineering relationship with Austin Straubel Field, now Austin Straubel International Airport. Mid-1940s We employed approximately 24 members. Patrick Boyd left the partnership and the business continued as Foth & Porath, Inc. Many municipal clients who were added during this time continue to work with Foth to this day. 1950 Jack Horner, World War I pilot and former Federal Aviation Administration official, joined our company to form Foth, Porath & Horner. The firm specialized in airport engineering and served clients throughout the upper Midwest. 1952 A major fire destroyed Foth, Porath & Horner’s Green Bay offices. Our members moved quickly to reestablish operations. 1960s Foth continued its steady growth and established its first environmental laboratory to support our clients’ wastewater treatment needs. 1967 Joseph Van Dyke joined the firm, changing our name to Foth & Van Dyke and Associates, Inc. 1970s Our business focus expanded significantly to address the era’s growing environmental awareness. New services included wastewater treatment, water supply, and environmental studies. These services, combined with the firm’s traditional civil engineering capabilities, were the precursor to today’s Foth Infrastructure & Environment, LLC. 1974 Consulting Engineers’ Council of Wisconsin presented Foth & Van Dyke with an Engineering Excellence Award for completion of the $14 million Shawano Lake wastewater system. 1976 Foth’s 45 members moved to new 13,000 sq. ft. offices in Green Bay. 1980s We grew and diversified, adding offices in Milwaukee and Madison, Wisconsin. 1981 Joe Van Dyke’s son, Steven, succeeded him as Chairman and CEO of the firm, and further diversified service offerings. 1982 Foth ranked in top 500 by Engineering News Record (ENR). A Food Plant Division was added to serve the process engineering needs of dairy and other food processing clients. Paper industry expertise also expanded. These combined resources became the Industrial Division of Foth & Van Dyke, now Foth Production Solutions, LLC. 1985 Employment reached more than 300 members. 1990s Foth expanded geographically throughout Illinois, Iowa, and Minnesota. 1997 Tim J. Weyenberg succeeded Steven Van Dyke as CEO. 2000s Our expansion continued throughout the U.S., as did our business diversification. Clients included Fortune 500 companies and the U.S. Postal Service; we now had more than 500 members. 2006 The company reorganized with Foth & Van Dyke as the parent company and three subsidiary companies, including Foth Infrastructure & Environment, LLC, Foth Production Solutions, LLC, and Foth Asset Management, LLC. 2009 Foth expanded geographically throughout Missouri and into Kansas. 2011 Foth Canada Corporation was created to expand operations internationally. 2012 Foth ranked in top 100 by Engineering News Record (ENR). 2013 Our 75th anniversary of client-service excellence.
