Jireh Industries was founded in the early 1980s.[a] In 1987, the company built a food processing machine that created potatoes of a uniform size and shape; this was achieved by making an artificial potato skin out of bran and starch in a metal mold and subsequently pumping a mashed potato solution therein.[4] Following the creation of this machine, the Edmonton Journal stated that the company had "built a reputation as machine shop innovators."[4][5]
In February 1991, Jireh Industries presented to the Alberta Premier's Council of Science and Technology.[6] This presentation took place under the Honourable Don Getty's premiership of Alberta. The University of Alberta's publication Folio listed Arthur Dubbeldam as "President" of Jireh Industries.[6] Dubbeldam had previously been educated at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, obtaining his degree in Mechanical Engineering in 1977.[7]
In 2002, when reporting on the industrial growth of Strathcona County, Alberta, the National Post reported that "Jireh Industries... does aerospace quality machining and makes robots that inspect on-surface and underwater pipelines for cracks and corrosion."[8]
