 PROFILE
You'd be hard pressed to find a homeowner who hasn't used something powered by a Briggs & Stratton engine. The company is the world's largest producer of three- to 25-horsepower air-cooled gasoline engines used in lawn mowers (riding and walk-behind) and garden tillers. Lawn and garden equipment manufacturers account for almost 80% of sales. Manufacturers of generators, pressure washers, and pumps make up the remaining sales. Together, AB Electrolux, MTD Products, and Tomkins PLC account for 45% of total sales. Briggs & Stratton makes its products in the US (its primary market) and serves overseas customers through a global network of distributors, a regional office in Switzerland, and a warehouse in the Netherlands.
