B&K Power
Equipment was founded in 1970 by Elmer Britton and is still a family owned
business today. Elmer took the lessons he learned from working at A.W.
Implement and opened his business on the south side of Huntley. During the
1970’s, 99% of our customers were local farmers. The mid to late seventies were
economically
 good
for the farm community and in 1978, the property on Harmony Road was purchased.
A new building was erected in 1980 and we moved in.
The 1990’s were
a decade of change. The sleepy county roads were becoming home to commercial and
residential developments. We changed our product mix to meet the needs of the
new residents of the area while still maintaining equipment, parts and service
for our long time customers.
Times have
changed again here in the 21st century, and we have adjusted to suit the
changing landscape with new innovations and advances to the industry. This
allows us to be able to service from the young and old to the residential and
commercial needs of our community.
Even though
Elmer, has turned over the reins of the company to his daughter, Barb Christ,
you still see him stop in everyday to see what is going on. B&K has a
knowledgeable staff that has a combined experience of more than 120 years in
the equipment business. We are pleased to note that B&K Power Equipment will always be
“Large enough to Know, but Small enough to care”.
So come out and
