WEST FARGO, N.D. (Dec. 15, 2025) – Bobcat Company is closing out 2025 by celebrating a year defined by innovation, investment and community impact—advancing its mission to empower people to accomplish more.
“2025 has been a year of progress and purpose,” said Mike Ballweber, president of Doosan Bobcat North America, Inc. “We introduced new solutions, invested in our facilities and people, and deepened our commitment to the communities we serve. These efforts have laid a strong foundation for the future and position us to deliver even greater value and opportunity for our customers, employees and partners in the years ahead.”
Expanding Solutions and Driving Innovation
Bobcat continued to broaden its product portfolio in 2025, giving customers more solutions and options to tackle their toughest challenges. The company introduced new offerings across large and compact construction equipment, forklifts, grounds maintenance solutions, portable power and industrial air.
Key launches included large wheel loaders and excavators, new compact excavator models, the MT120 mini track loader, new compact tractor models, a new small articulated loader model, new diesel pneumatic tire forklifts, a new portable generator, and tank-mounted air compressors.
Bobcat showcased these innovations at major industry events, including World of Concrete, ProMat, Utility Expo and Equip Expo—and highlighted its commitment to American manufacturing at the AEM Celebration of Construction on the National Mall.
Making a Difference in Communities
As part of its “Work Worth Doing” initiative, Bobcat honored everyday heroes who are making an impact in their communities. Highlights included gifting equipment to U.S. veteran Jason Shield’s Hoof Haven Sanctuary, partnering with the Los Angeles Fire Department for wildfire response, helping a local school keep its athletic fields turf-ready with a zero-turn mower donation, and contributing $150,000 to the National Recreation and Park Association to improve outdoor spaces nationwide.
Bobcat employees also stepped up in meaningful ways across the globe. Through the Doosan Bobcat Community Days event, more than 700 employees across 12 countries volunteered thousands of hours to support local projects and nonprofits. During its fall Annual Giving Campaign, Bobcat and its employees donated more than $200,000 to 127 nonprofits across North America, expanding the company’s impact even further.
Bobcat also teamed up with The Salvation Army to raise awareness for National Preparedness Month, encouraging emergency readiness and safety.
Advancing Education and Future Talent
Bobcat continued to invest in STEM education and future workforce development through key partnerships and hands-on learning opportunities. The company donated $200,000 to the University of North Carolina at Charlotte’s William States Lee College of Engineering to support scholarships and launched a Bobcat Student Development Program. In North Dakota, Bobcat sponsored Gateway to Science’s Outdoor Explorium exhibit, offering hands-on learning with a Bobcat excavator arm.
Investing in People and Workplace Excellence
Bobcat earned recognition as one of Newsweek’s America’s Greatest Workplaces for 2025, reflecting its commitment to meaningful work, employee wellbeing and a strong workplace culture. The company completed a $4.8 million renovation of its Bismark, North Dakota facility, part of more than $82 million invested in North Dakota facilities over the past decade. Bobcat also celebrated employee innovation through its annual Credo Awards and Patents Recognition Program, honoring nearly 150 individuals and teams.
