Dear Arizona and New Mexico Power Retailer,
We will have the following new Husqvarna saws in 2010:
372XP x torq
Production of the existing 372 will stop in Dec.2009
We are working to ensure that we get our production needs in SOP and the units built in 2009. The new unit (emission ready) is planned to start the first week of Jan.
We "building" inventory to cover Jan 2010 needs and then move into the new unit 01 Feb.
On the 372XPW (75cc version) we can have 500 of these and this will carry us into the second quarter. We need to discuss where the inventory resides....
The new 365 x-torq production will start in mid March 2010- we will plan on a late May 2010 market intro.
I recommend you get the orders in today, and begin building back-orders for any 372's that you want delivered before production is stopped.
