FG Wilson is a name that has long been associated with generators. In fact, since opening their doors in 1966, the FG Wilson brand has continued to grow and is now a dominant force in the diesel generator market.
To understand the real power of FG Wilson generators we need to take a closer look at the history of the company and how a few chance opportunities helped FG Wilson become a powerful force in generators.
The History of FG Wilson
Over 59 years ago, Fred Wilson founded the company, FG Wilson. With over 20 years of engineering experience behind him, Fred and his small team set out to design and deliver quality engineering products, backed by unparalleled support while delivering excellent value for money. These principles are still adhered to today.
It was less than ten years after launching the business that things took a dramatic turn. War in the Middle East saw oil supplies around the world restricted and electricity rationed. This forced big businesses to look for alternative power supplies – namely portable generators. FG Wilson saw an opportunity and grabbed it with both hands and began flying generators from the UK to the US. It was a bold move but one that paid off handsomely and saw the company achieve millions of dollars in sales.
Becoming a Global Brand
After its rapid global growth throughout the 70s and 80s, FG Wilson began focusing on creating a globally consistent production standard and an expansive support network. With manufacturing facilities spanning Northern Ireland, Brazil, India, China and the USA, every FG Wilson generator is built to the same stringent quality standards regardless of location.
The company also turned its focus to building a network of dealers . Today, FG Wilson has a global network of authorised dealers which has seen generator sets installed in over 150 countries. This global reach gives customers the benefit from local expertise, genuine parts and rapid support, no matter where the generators are deployed.
