About Us

Founded in December 2016, Tier 1 Fabrication is a family-owned business that takes pride in providing quality products with superior craftsmanship for the drive-away industry.



After completing his training at the Missouri Welding Institute, owner Kris White, has been welding professionally since 2003. He acquired the u-bolt style tow hitch business from Mr. Herb Fuller, owner of Thoroughbred Industries, Inc. and started Tier 1 as a side gig out of his garage. Since then, Tier 1 Fabrication has expanded to a full-service shop in Mayview, MO. In addition to offering custom fabrication services, the Tier 1 product line has expanded to include clamp-on style tow hitches, decking saddles, boom trailers, decking trailers, hoists and more.



With unmatched industry expertise and excellent customer service, Tier 1 is the nation’s premiere provider of custom-built drive-away equipment and accessories.
