1998
The founding of the company.
The company was founded in 1998 in Groß-Umstadt in southern Hesse under the name “Grizzly Gartengeräte GmbH & Co. KG” by the general managers Inge Christ and Horst Lieb, with the participation of Thono GmbH Herdecke.
The goal was to supply the German garden and leisure market with innovative and inexpensive garden equipment. As partners in this project, we had the assistance of strong Italian manufacturers of garden machines from the very start.
This partnership generated rapid growth, helping Grizzly Tools GmbH & Co. KG become one of Europe’s leading importers in the garden and leisure market today. Additional milestones since the founding:
