Design-driven ceiling fan manufacturer with 140+ years of market presence
Hunter Fan manufactures and sells ceiling fans as functional home furnishings, competing on design and engineering quality. The tech stack reveals a traditional manufacturing operation—CAD, SolidWorks, and Creo for product design; Windchill/PDMLink for product lifecycle management; Infor LN, SAP APO, and Oracle Demantra for supply chain and demand planning. An active Windchill upgrade and PLM portfolio program, combined with engineering data migration projects, signal a push to modernize legacy design and manufacturing systems. Hiring is accelerating across engineering and ops roles, suggesting increased investment in product development velocity and operational efficiency.
