Frederick, MD.
During his recent visit to Wright Manufacturing, a leading manufacturer of lawn maintenance equipment, U.S. President George W. Bush did more than discuss the need for an economic growth package. He also recognized the entrepreneurial efforts of the company’s founder and president, Bill Wright. While the tax relief package has been approved to stimulate the economy, the visit and corresponding media attention has already created an immense sense of pride and excitement among Wright’s top dealers.
According to Ed Mueller, General Manager and Sales Manager of Steven Willand, Inc., a leading Wright distributor, “Bill Wright has always been one of the lawn maintenance industry’s great success stories. He started in the lawn-cutting business like a lot of us and went on to become a successful designer, inventor, and manufacturer. The President’s visit puts Wright’s success story in the national spotlight and we’re delighted to be a part of that story.”
Steve Willand, Inc., a wholesale commercial power equipment distributor, distributes Wright products to over 100 dealers in New York and New Jersey.
Wright Manufacturing has been a pioneer in the lawn maintenance industry since introducing the first all-steel grass catcher more than twenty years ago. More recently, they have revolutionized the industry with the introduction of the stand-on mowers. Over the last two decades, Wright’s engineering teams have received over 40 U.S. patents with more pending future approval. The White House chose to tout their economic relief package during President Bush’s tour of the Wright factory on January 18, 2007.
According to the company’s founder and CEO, Bill Wright, President Bush called companies like ours “the backbone of the economy” and our dealers are the backbone of our business. So it’s great to hear they’re as excited as about the President’s visit as we are.
Mueller adds, “This is a great time for our team and our dealers. Seeing the President of the United States make a speech at Wright Manufacturing has brought a real sense of pride to everyone associated the company and its products.”
