It's not every day that a customer can walk into a power equipment store and get both the friendliness of a neighborhood hardware store and the force of one of the nation's top lawn equipment dealers. But that's exactly what Russo Power Equipment is—a punch of power with a hunk of hospitality.
Russo Power Equipment opened in Chicago, Illinois 54 years ago as a small hardwood store and has since evolved into a large, multi-location power equipment and landscape supply dealer in the state. Locally owned and family-operated, Russo embodies the success and hard work of the American Dream. "From the start, we have been dedicated to providing our customers with the exceptional service that they have come to expect over the past 50 years," Marketing Supervisor Chris says. While customer care is incredibly important to Russo Power Equipment, they also go that extra step for a world where pollution is prominent. The company recycles as much plastic, cardboard and metal as they possibly can. According to their website, the company recycled an estimated 150,00 lbs. of cardboard and 9,500 lbs. of plastic wrap in 2011 as well as carry products in their store that reduces emissions in the air.
With forty-plus years in the business, a mission to increase customer service, and a goal to decrease pollution in any way they can, Russo has become a household name in the commercial lawn care industry — not unlike Wright Manufacturing.
According to Chris, Wright has become a leader in the mowing industry and many of Russo's customers love the product because of the great standing capabilities Wright mowers have.
"It's ideal for an urban setting, yet still works great with large properties," Chris says. In addition, because of Wright's superior quality, Russo's customers experience fewer problems with the Wright products than any other brands. Thanks to the customer care and the product quality that both hold to such a high standard, Wright and Russo have developed a great relationship with each other that will withstand a lifetime. Russo has three power equipment locations: 39 East Belvidere Rd, Hainesville, Ill., 1636 North Aurora Rd, Naperville, Ill., and 9525 West Irving Park Rd., Schiller Park, Illinois.
