Pat's
Small Engine LLC was formed in June 2002 by Patrick Duncanson. Up
until 2004 the focus of the business was simply engine repairs.
Business was ran from Pat's residence. Repairs and parts were managed
in his two-stall garage. In
March of 2004, www.psep.biz became live online with the concept of
offering items with better pricing than that of active competition.
Flat rate shipping costs to the customer, regardless of order size, was
just under $6. |
 |
When the
first million in sales hit in 2005, followed by another million record
sales soon to follow, ground was broken in April 2007 for the commercial
location. With over 10,000 square footage for warehouse, sales, and
repairs, Pat's Small Engine Plus had its grand opening in May 2008.
The first mower lines were picked up at
this time and consisted of Dixon and Bobcat Turf. |
 |
Successful
growth required a second level warehouse expansion in 2011, followed by a
second expansion in 2013. Pat's Small Engine currently carries over
23 OEM lines, innumerable aftermarket lines, and moves an average of 200
shipped orders per day. Pat's
Small Engine offers year round repair shop service, showroom floor
with seasonal changes, and will call desk. |
