Caterpillar: Brand Profile


Caterpillar has ended up as one of the world's more unlikely high-profile brands, prominent in two very different fields. That stylish yellow-tabbed CAT logo is best-known to the construction industry as the symbol of the leading global manufacturer of off-road trucks, tractors and other multi-terrain vehicles. To consumers, it is probably more familiar on a range of high-priced heavy duty designer boots and associated apparel. The latter, though the smaller of the two businesses by far, trades off its sibling's well-established values of rugged, durable and dependable performance. Caterpillar footwear is produced under license by Wolverine Worldwide, best-known as the makers of Hush Puppies. CAT apparel is manufactured under license by Cyrk.
