Book Description

Publication Date: May 21, 2001

The Yes, you can of Invacare Corporation tells the roots of the Invacare Corporation that stretch almost as far back as the wheelchair itself. The company began as the Fay Manufacturing Company, maker of tricycles, in 1885. Today, Invacare is the world's top manufacturer of rehabilitative products, respiratory products, home care beds and products, soft goods and supplies, institutional beds and equipment, and, of course, wheelchairs, with manufacturing facilities in twelve countries. In 2000, the company reached $1 billion in sales, a milestone it hopes to double by 2005.
