Grasshopper Company was honored with the 2015 Dealer's Choice Award from the North American Equipment Dealers Association. This recognition goes to the manufacturer that receives the highest ratings from dealers across the country in areas such as product quality, parts availability, marketing and advertising support and technical support.

With exceptional ratings in product and parts quality, Grasshopper Company was awarded the 2015 Dealer's Choice Award by the North American Equipment Dealers Association.

"Our continuous improvement in manufacturing processes and parts deliverability has resulted in a level of product and support unmatched in the industry," said Stan Guyer, company president. "The dealers who we trust to represent our products have rewarded us through these high ratings and in turn our commitment to the independent dealer is unwavering."

As the only recipient of the top award among outdoor power equipment manufacturers, Grasshopper ratings exceeded industry averages in all 12 areas surveyed. In addition to the top ratings in quality and parts availability, the company ranked high in product availability, technical support, marketing and advertising support, and warranty procedures and payments. Grasshopper ranked well above average in response to dealer needs and overall satisfaction.

"The Dealer's Choice Award recognizes manufacturers that are doing an exceptional job of providing top-quality products, parts, service and support to the industry," said Blaine Bingham, NAEDA chair. "These companies are to be complemented on their efforts to assist dealers in key areas of our business operations."

Grasshopper chooses to invest in the independent dealer network through such principles as fresh inventory turns and providing product support through a team of knowledgeable territory managers.
