Greenworks Commercial

What Greenworks Commercial does

Greenworks Commercial, operated by Greenworks North America, LLC and headquartered in Mooresville, North Carolina, manufactures battery-powered outdoor power equipment for professional landscapers, government and municipal grounds crews, and institutional campus facilities in the United States and Canada (excluding Quebec). The company's flagship OPTIMUS platform runs on a single 82V lithium-ion battery system using LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) cell chemistry, delivering up to 70HP-equivalent power in flagship zero-turn mowers, 8-hour runtime covering up to 28 acres per charge, and 4G/GPS-enabled fleet management through a proprietary Commercial Fleet App. The product portfolio spans zero-turn riding mowers (OptimusZ), walk-behind mowers, chainsaws, backpack and handheld blowers, hedge trimmers, trimmers and edgers, electric utility vehicles, specialty tools (power cutters, sprayers/spreaders), and a complete charging ecosystem including CORE batteries, dual-port chargers, ChargeLink caddies, and the OPTIMUS Cube for on-the-go charging. Sub-brands include OPTIMUSZ (commercial zero-turn), OPTIMOW (robotic mowers), and Maximus (prosumer residential), bringing the total addressed footprint to 50+ tools on one shared voltage platform.

The company manufactures up to 80% of components in-house across global facilities, holds more than 1,000 patents, and reports sustained double-digit growth over the past decade. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time hardware sales via a nationwide authorized dealer network (including a National Accounts program for large fleet buyers), direct e-commerce on greenworkscommercial.com, and a demo-request workflow for enterprise prospects, with optional dealer-arranged financing. Primary customers include Enhanced Landscape Management (enterprise), ArborMaster (arboriculture), Grand Canyon University and Arizona State University (education), Hacks Landscaping and Terra-scape (mid-market contractors), and Long Beach Unified Schools (government). The CEO is Yin Chen. Key differentiators are vertical integration, an 82V standard across the lineup, third-party certifications including AGZA Field-Tested, and award-winning products such as the OPTIMUS 42N Backpack Blower (OPE+ Landscape Twenty 2026).
