History
Polaris has a long history of hard-working, family ownership. Beginning in a small town in northern Minnesota during World War ll, skilled mechanics Edgar and Allan Hetteen quickly built a loyal customer base.Motivated to discover a better way to travel to hunting grounds during the harsh Minnesotan winters, the brothers developed one of the first snowmobiles. With time, their snowmobiles became so popular that they started making them exclusively. Later, they grew their manufacturing base to develop ATVs and become one of the world’s biggest powersports dealers.
Recently, they expanded their product line to include commercial and military vehicles, as well as a clothing and accessories line.
