Dear Servicing Dealers,
Happy New Year! At STIHL we closed out 2016 on an extraordinary note with record growth and winning market
share. Kicking off the new year, we have the largest new product launch in our company's history. With 40 new
professional and consumer options, including the new STIHL Lightning Battery System™ and upgraded professional
gasoline products, STIHL now has one of the widest ranges of handheld outdoor power equipment in the industry.
This launch includes an exciting new line of STIHL high pressure washers, further expanding the STIHL range of
product offerings for our servicing dealers.
We are honored to announce once again that in addition to being the number one selling brand of gasoline-powered
handheld outdoor power equipment in America* since 2009, STIHL is also the number one selling brand of gasoline-
powered handheld outdoor power equipment among U.S landscape professionals.** This is a direct result of the
hard work and dedication of Team STIHL, including our passionate employees and servicing dealers.
I am confident the winning combination of new products and exceptional servicing dealers will make 2017
a year to remember.
There has never been a better time to be a STIHL dealer.
Best regards,
Bjoern Fischer
President
STIHL Inc.
