As part of its 100-year celebration, Caterpillar is bringing its global Centennial World Tour to India this October. The immersive experience pays tribute to the people, progress, and purpose that have defined the brand over the past century while setting the stage for the next 100 years of innovation and impact.
The truck will travel to five key locations across India, visiting major Caterpillar facilities and engaging majority of its employees. At each location, guests can explore interactive exhibits, hear powerful stories of transformation, and get a firsthand look at how Caterpillar is helping its customers shape a more sustainable and connected future for industries and communities worldwide. These exhibits will also touch upon Caterpillar’s integral role in driving socio-economic growth of India through investments in R&D and local manufacturing.
Also, in connection with the Centennial World Tour stops in India, the Caterpillar Foundation will allocate a total of $145,000 USD to Goonj, a charity organization that uses underutilized material to improve livelihood, bridge gaps in rural infrastructure and provide disaster relief across India. This donation will be made by Charities Aid Foundation America (CAF America) at the recommendation of the Caterpillar Foundation.
The Centennial World Tour embarked on its journey to visit Caterpillar facilities around the world in early 2025 to provide an interactive and immersive experience for employees and visitors.
Highlighting the importance of celebrating Caterpillar’s legacy, Bhuvan Anandakrishnan, Vice President – Global Engineering & Technology and Country Manager for Caterpillar in India said, “India’s growth story has been a part of our own. There would be no Caterpillar products or solutions without the people behind them. No matter what our customers will need 100 years from now, we will be there to develop products and solutions to help them create a lasting impact on their communities in a sustainable way.”
As Caterpillar celebrates 100 years of leading the industry through innovation, this world tour stands as both a tribute to our legacy and a look ahead to what’s next, from a brand committed to providing products and solutions that connect people to water, energy, food, work, education, and to one another. We’re proud of the journey so far and even more excited about what lies ahead.
