Wisconsin Engineering


Wisconsin Engineering is a US-Czech manufacturer of utility tractors, compact tractors, and outdoor power equipment for the premium consumer, light commercial, and professional markets. Legally, the company is structured as a "společnost s ručením omezeným" which is the Czech equivalent of a limited liability company in the United States.
Wisconsin Engineering was founded in 1992 in Sheboygan, Wisconsin in the USA, by Dr. Jerry J. Olmr, Ph.D., as a mechanical design consultancy and production tooling brokerage. Several pioneering lawn tractor designs were introduced during the first years, including a commercial grade rear bagging lawn tractor that has become the company's best selling and most widely distributed product.
During the mid-1990s, prototypes of this machine, as well as several others, were shown in major outdoor power equipment shows across the world, with the most viable interest coming from the European market. Manufacturing facilities in Prostejov, Czech Republic were first leased in 1996, later purchased in 1998, from the then defunct Agrostroj Prostejov.
