A family-run business, Glenn Cummings Jr. and his two sons; Glenn III and Jaime, own and operate the company. Our Story The Cummins family has been in the engine distributor business with Ford Motor Company for over 60 years. In the 1950s, Ford needed distributors to sell its excess automobile engines in the industrial, agricultural and marine markets – and Ford Power Products provided both the engines and the component parts needed to convert automotive engines to industrial or marine use. In 1958, Berglund Motor Company formed a division (trading as Engine Distributors) to be a distributor for Ford industrial gasoline engines. Glenn Cummins, Sr. was the General Manager of this division. In 1970, Engine Distributors Inc. was formed as a subsidiary of Berglund Motor Company, with Glenn Cummins, Sr. as Vice President and General Manager. At that time, Engine Distributors Inc. also became a distributor for the Crusader marine engine line. The primary market for Crusader marine engines are builders of boats that utilize inboard engines (as opposed to inboard/outboard). Engine Distributors Inc. also provided parts, service and used engines for this market. In 1976, Engine Distributors Inc. became a distributor for Deutz diesel engines, which complemented its gasoline line from Ford Motor Company. These air-cooled diesel engines range from from 5 to 250 HP and are manufactured in Germany. In 1983, Glenn Cummins, Sr. purchased 100% of the stock for Engine Distributors Inc. At that time, the company expanded its offerings and became a Kubota engine distributor. Kubota engines are Japanese-manufactured, liquid-cooled diesel engines that range from 5 to 100+ HP.
