The Winco Generator Company

After being in business for nearly 80 years, the Winco company has developed a large product line. In 1927, they began with a battery system that could store power generated from wind. In Cherokee, Iowa, the "Wincharger" powered the Albers' family farm, and like all great American successes, word of mouth and ingenuity prevailed. All of their rural, powerless neighbors wanted one, and Winco was created. It didn't take long for them to outgrow Cherokee and move to Sioux City, Iowa. Today Winco makes permanent standby systems for homes and businesses, portable generators, mobile diesel power units, transfer switches and more.

Winco Generators and Products

Most of Winco's generators are larger and for work and back-up power. They don't offer recreational models of generators yet, but offer many generators you may not even realize exist, like their Two Bearing Generators that are used to power lifts and pressure washers. Power Take Off (PTO) Generators are designed to run off engines and conserve energy and are very popular in farming equipment and close to the heart and core of the Winco company. Their latest creation is a tri-fuel back-up generator that can power your home on gasoline, propane or natural gas! When you go with a Winco, you know you will be getting a well built and surprisingly quiet generator, and they will back that up with a 1-year or more warranty on their products.
