Overview
It's no BS, Briggs & Stratton knows outdoor housework. For power equipment, the company is #1 among manufacturers of air-cooled gas engines. Lawn and garden OEMs Husqvarna Outdoor Products, MTD, and Deere are key engine customers; generator, pressure washer, and pump makers are less so. Replacement engines and parts are made for aftermarkets, too. Engines are sold worldwide direct through sales and service arms. Subsidiary Briggs & Stratton Power Products also produces generators, pressure washers, mowers, and other outdoor tools, retailed through Lowes, Home Depot, and Sears, as well as independent dealers. Briggs & Stratton engine and power product facilities dot the US, Europe, Australia, and China.
