Description

Simplicity Manufacturing, Inc., was founded in 1922 by William J. Niederkorn in Port Washington, Wisconsin - a small, family-oriented community along the shores of Lake Michigan.The first product manufactured by Simplicity Manufacturing, Inc., was a portable boring and grinding machine for reconditioning automobile engines. The demand for this product disappeared in 1936, when Detroit started rebuilding engines to sell directly to car and truck owners.In 1937, Simplicity entered the outdoor power equipment industry by building two-wheel walking tractors for Montgomery Ward & Company. These became so popular that an entire line of lawn and garden equipment was soon designed by Simplicity.
