Interesting that yesterday Stanley Black and Decker announced the all cash purchase of Hustler and Big Dog mowers by purchasing Excel Corp of Hesston KS for $375 million. I sure hope the plant stays in Hesston - that would be a lot of jobs to dump.
So now Hustler and Big Dog join Cub Cadet, Craftsman, MTD, Troy-Bilt and Rover as B&D turf products. Looks like they will have a giant share of the zero turn market. I doubt Deere is too worried, but still interesting to me how manufacturing is coalescing.
