Garmin International, Inc - you surely saw those charming commercials at the holidays with a hurried shopper needing her uni-brow waxed?
Well, Garmin, II, is located in our own Olathe, Kansas and busting at successful business seams, according to articles at the Garmin website and in the Kansas City Business Journal.
According to the information in the above, in 1989, a handful of engineers with an idea released a LEADER in the Global Positioning System business in sales and critical acclaim.
Garmin concentrates on
- Innovation, establishing many ‘firsts' in the GPS business History of Firsts
- Convenience, by keeping the consumer in mind.
- Performance, by making a device that delivers accuracy, quality and reliability
- Value, delivering more at an affordable price
- Service, to match the device Garmin is committed to offering superior customer service.
Kansas and especially Olathe, can be proud to be connected to this growing business.
New releases include updated Nuvi and Streetpilot street navigation devices. And the Astro - a device for tracking your dog (I remember the Jetson's clever mutt, don't you?)
Articles published in the Kansas City Business Journal this week and last elaborate on Garmin's new releases and admirable business growth.
Along with Garmin, Olathe is one of the fastest growing cities in the MidWest, yet manages to retain its community flavor. Olathe real estate moves steadily along.
