"Work or play - we know families." For Chuck Henderson, president of Henderson, this is more than a slogan; it's his vision for the company and the foundation of its success.

Celebrating over 55 years of business, Henderson was founded in 1967 as a modest family business in southwest Louisiana; the company has been steadily growing. Starting as an industrial implement dealer, the company provided service to the expanding local agricultural farming communities. As the agriculture industry changed and flourished, Henderson was there to meet the growing needs of the industry, expanding their line to include Kubota tractors in order to help support small-scale farmers; the company also provides Kubota construction equipment and rental equipment to meet increasing construction demands in the Southwest Louisiana area. Later, Henderson further diversified to meet the residential needs by offering the full line of Kubota lawnmowers.

As innovation in technology and equipment progressed, families could enjoy more free time together. Henderson recognized the need and expanded into leisure and recreational vehicles, becoming a dealer for White River Marine products, which include Tracker Boats, Sun Tracker and Regency pontoons, Mako, Tahoe, and Nitro bass boats. Additionally, Henderson became a dealer for Ranger Boats. With a full line of boat offerings and a full line of Mercury Marine® outboard motors, Henderson is able to offer customizable boat offerings to their customers, allowing their customers to be fully satisfied with their purchase. Henderson is also a dealer for Polaris® ATVs and UTVs.

Henderson offers more than a robust product line. It prides itself on being a one-stop shop for all customers. All Henderson units can be serviced in their service department, and parts can be purchased through their parts counter, allowing customers to feel taken care of as if they’re part of the family.

In April 1999, Henderson diversified and expanded its business by becoming a distributor of Hunt Brothers Pizza. Beginning in Welsh, Louisiana, TK Pizza, now Henderson Wholesale, began serving small-town communities by delivering delicious pizza and an unforgettable customer experience to local convenience store owners. As the years went by, the demand for Hunt Brothers Pizza grew, providing Henderson Wholesale with a unique opportunity to expand beyond its hometown.
