Beatty Brothers Limited was a major international manufacturer of agricultural machinery, barn and stable equipment, and household appliances, which was based in Fergus, Ontario, Canada. It was founded in 1874 by brothers George and Matthew Beatty, and reached its peak in the 1900s–1930s under William G. and Milton J. Beatty, George's sons. In 1969 it was merged with General Steel Wares to become a part of GSW Limited, and became defunct as an independent company. It is credited as having popularized the washing machine in Canada, as well as incorporating a key component, the agitator, into its designs starting in the 1920s, a component which is today found in virtually all top-loading washing machines.
