Textron’s Arctic Cat struggles. Could this be the end?

This was posted by a former colleague of Brad Darling at Arctic Cat:
I worked for Brad Darling at Arctic Cat and at Argo and he is simply one of the Best bosses you will ever have. He will succeed because people respect him tremendously and will give him 100% of their efforts and he will share that success with his whole team. I could not be happier for the people in TRF as their future looks much brighter today. I just wish I was 25 years younger so I could start my career with Cat all over again!!


Let's hope his optimism is not unfounded.

That’s good to hear. The company I work for has a line card of products at DigiKey. DigiKey is also in Thief River Falls, and is the largest employer with Arctic Cat a very distant 2nd. My Digi buyer who oversees our inventory is in TRF, I spoke to her on Thursday and asked her about the news of AC being sold and staying open. She said the whole city and the few surrounding towns are all very excited of the news. It’s a very big deal for them as a community & it’s economics.

Yup, the local crowd is very happy, especially The Black Cat Sports Bar across the road
