Medina-based Polaris Industries, Inc., is liquidating the former factory of Global Electric Motorcars, LLC (GEM) in Fargo, ND.

The liquidation sale of the excess factory inventory and equipment will start December 6th and is open to the public every day until all the assets are sold. Hours of the sale are 10am till 6pm Monday thru Sunday. Included in the sale are excess Global Electric Motorcars vehicles, tools, equipment, office furniture, pallet racking, and a state of the art production line installed in 2003.
