Schiller Grounds Care, AriensCo announce US sales partnership
Schiller Grounds Care and AriensCo announced an exclusive U.S. sales partnership under which AriensCo will become the exclusive sales agent for Classen, Little Wonder and Mantis equipment in the United States beginning June 1.
The companies said the partnership brings together two family-owned organizations focused on outdoor power equipment and dealer networks.
“Schiller’s products are known for their quality, longevity and premium performance that aligns to AriensCo’s values,” said AriensCo Chief Revenue Officer Stephen Ariens. “We’re excited to introduce the Classen, Little Wonder, and Mantis brands to our dealer network while at the same time introducing Schiller’s network to Ariens® and Gravely® equipment. Our teams are eager to help both networks grow their businesses.”
The companies said the combined product lineup will include equipment for snow removal, lawn care, gardening, debris management and fall cleanup.
“As we evaluated the future, we knew we needed a partner that not only had scale and reach, but also shared our commitment to quality, innovation, and dealer support,” said Gina Putnam, director of sales and marketing at Schiller Grounds Care. “From our very first conversations, it was clear AriensCo was the right fit. Their long-standing reputation, family-owned values, and deep investment in both their dealer network and customer care align closely with our own. We are confident AriensCo is the ideal partner to help grow the Classen, Little Wonder, and Mantis brands.”
Under the agreement, AriensCo will provide a single access point for products including tillers, cultivators, zero-turn lawn mowers, aerators, sod cutters, leaf blowers and snow blowers.
