           Villiers.  “We will also soon be starting our

            The  Positec  Tool  Corporation,  or  simply
           Positec,  is  a  manufacturing  company  that
           specialises in the production of power
           tools and lawn and garden equipment. The
           company’s  corporate  headquarters  are  in
           Suzhou, China and the head of its North
           American division is in Charlotte, North

            “We don’t just talk about social
           responsibility, we live it.” says Don Gao, CEO
           and  Positec  founder.  “Although  companies
           are certainly in business to make a profit,
           I  believe  that  profit  alone  cannot  inspire  a
           company to become a great enterprise. There
           must be something else - a higher calling
           of responsibility to the people and to the
           planet that gives life meaning. Whether it is
           designing products that are safer, seeing the
           value in each employee, being a good citizen
           in our community or minimising our carbon
           footprint, it is all part of our shared dream to
           build a truly sustainable company.”
