After a whirlwind two weeks traveling the globe, a lost Billie was finally discovered and returned to Logitech. He is now on a plane home so he can be reunited with his owner, Jerry Quindlen, CEO of Logitech.
To help with our efforts to find Billie, our office in Switzerland organized a contest offering 5000 CHF and 500 CHF worth of Logitech products to the Swiss resident who found Billie at the Media Markt in Crissier, just 20 kilometers from the little farm in the village of Apples where Logitech was founded in 1981. We are very grateful to Mr. Antonio Pé-Curto from Prilly in the canton of Vaud for helping us find Billie! Mr. Pé-Curto said, “I’m very happy; I thought this kind of thing always happened to someone else!” He’ll be choosing the Logitech products this afternoon with his son at Media Markt.
Present at the prize-giving were Antoine Preisig, vice president sales and marketing for Logitech EMEA, Gabriele Valsecchi, country manager for Logitech Suisse, Guido Renggli, CEO Media Markt en Suisse, Thierry Desponds, director Media Markt Crissier and Walter Strauch, IT team leader Media Markt Crissier.
Our final question for our online contest is posted below. Good luck!
Q: On average, how many mice does Logitech manufacture each day? If Logitech were to continue to manufacture mice at that rate, in what year would the company reach its 2 billionth mouse milestone?
Q: Wann würde Logitech die 2-Milliarden-Marke erreichen, wenn das Unternehmen weiterhin mit derselben Geschwindigkeit Mäuse herstellt?

On average, Logitech manufactures 376,000 mice per day.
At that rate, it will take just over 128 years to manufacture a billion mice.
The 2nd billion milestone would be reached in the year 2137.
Logitech manufactures an average of 376,000 mice per day and 7.8 million every month.
2019 is the year.
376,000 mice per day.
2 billion mice will be reached in 2016 at the current rate.
Logitech produces 376,000 mice per day. It would take 7.28 years to reach the 2 billion mark and that would happen in the year 2016 if we started counting from today.
Per Logitech press release 12/03/2008 — Daily production averages 376,000. Using the monthly production figure of 7.8 million, the two billionth mouse will be manufactured in 10.68 years or sometime in year 2019.
Today, Logitech sells mice in more than 100 countries worldwide and manufactures an average
of 376,000 mice per day. They should reach the 2 billionth mark by 2016.
376,000 mice every day, in 2019 2 billionth mouse
11:59 am
Approximately 376,000 mice per day and Logitech would reach 2 billion mice sometime in 2016.
If you choose the daily production rate you’ll produce the second billionth mouse in approximatly 7 years , 3 months and 14 days.
In approximately 10 years (choosing the monthly output) and 8 months.
2048
Logitech manufactures an average of 376,000 mice per day and in 2016 Logitech will reach 2 billion
Logitech manufactures an average of 376,000 mice per day. The year you would get to the 2 billionth mouse (assuming starting from Dec 2008) would be 2019.
manufactures an average of 376,000 mice per day
2016
If we cumulate from 1981, the daily average is around 100k mice.With this average the 2 billionth mouse will be made in 2035, but I think the progress will be faster.
On average, Logitech manufactures 376,000 mice per day. At this rate it would reach 2 billion mice in the year 2016.
376,000 mice per day
2 billion milestone in 2016
An average of 376,000 mice per day…7.8 million per month
At that rate…it will take 10 years and 8 months
So around August of 2019
Good Luck and thanks for all your hard work
Happy Holidays to all!
Q: On average, how many mice does Logitech manufacture each day?
376 000.
Q: If Logitech were to continue to manufacture mice at that rate, in what year would the company reach its 2 billionth mouse milestone?
With the rate od 376 000 per day that makes 94 000 000 mice to produce per year which tells us that Logitech will take 11 years to do that, so in the year 2019 (in it’s very end, December).
Thank you so much!! I am so excited about winning this! Thank you again so much!!
376,000 mice each day and will make another billion by the year 2015. Thanks!
If it’s possible I would like to resubmit my answere in the right format.
Logitech produces 376000 mice per day so the second billionth mouse would be produced in 2015. It means based on that nummber 2008 equals 100000000000 and then it would be 200000000000= 100000000000 + a* 376000, where a equals to 2659.57446809 to make the equation correct.
2659/365=7.2865 years if you round to years it’s 7 and 2008 + 7 = 2015.
Logitech manufactures an average of 376,000 mice per day and will reach reach its 2 billionth mouse milestone in 2019
2035
376,000 per day, 2019 is the year.
Assuming the current average holds, I predict the exact date of the 2 Billion Mice blog contest to begin July 1st, 2019.
See you then!
🙂
376,000
2016
Logitech manufactures 376,000 mice every working day. At which rate the 2 billionth mouse would come in early 2016 working 365 days a year.
However, Logitech employees take days off and work approximately 21 days a month or 252 days a year producing approximately 94,752,000 mice a year, at which rate the 2 billionth mouse would come around the middle of 2019.
94,752,000 mice a year averages out to 259,595 mice a day, every day.
376,000 & 2015
Average daily production is 376,000.
Two billionth mouse will be produced in 2016.
Logitech produce approximately 376000 mice per day, assuming production is sustained at the same level, it will take 7 years and 15 days for Logitech to produce a billion more mice.
Billie came off the production line on the 3rd December 2008, therefore Billie2 would be made on December 18th 2015.
Warm winter wishes to Billie and everyone reading this, may the holidays bring you everything you wish for, including a Logitech mouse.
Logitech does 376 000 mice a day (on average)
This means ~7,8 millions mice monthly.
So with tath rate, logitech will reach the 2. billionth mice milestone in 2018 .
Q: On average, how many mice does Logitech manufacture each day? If Logitech were to continue to manufacture mice at that rate, in what year would the company reach its 2 billionth mouse milestone?
Well lets see, on average, Logitech currently manufactures 270,000 mice daily and 6 million in a month. So that make it 72 million a year. So it will take around 13.8 years to reach the 2 billionth milestone, which is around year 2022.
Way to go Logitech 🙂
376,000 & 2015
In 2035
Logitech manufactures an average of 376,000 mice per day and 7.8 million each month.
In 2021, Logitech should reach the 2 billion mark.
In 2035.
The answer is in the year 2035.
There were 9501 days between the 1982 Comdex revealing of the P4 Mouse and Billie the Billionth.
On average, 105,252.079 mice per day
It’ll be December 8, 2034 for the 2 billionth mouse :O
Average of 376,000 mice per day meaning the 2 billion mark should be reached in spring 2016
Logitech manufacture 376,000 mice per day.
Logitech will reach 2 billions mice manufactured in 2014.
On average Logitech manufacteurs 376,000 mice per day.
Two billionth mouse milestone will be reached In 2019 at the current rate of production.
Answers: 376,000 per day. The year 2019
Logitech manufacture 376,000 mice per day.
Logitech will reach 2 billions mice manufactured in 2014.
376,000 mice made per day 2019 to reach 2 billionth mouse
Logitech manufactures an average of 376,000 mice per day.
If the billionth mouse came off the assembly line in mid-November 2008, the 2 billionth mouse should come off the assembly line approximately February 27, 2016.
Logitech produces 376,000 mice per day on average. By my calculations, the milestone would be reached in 2019.
Logitech manufactures 376,000 mice every day
If the same rate is kept logitech will reach its 2 billionth mouse in the year 2019
376,000 mice are manufactured on average each day. My calculations indicate that Logitech would reach its 2 billionth mouse milestone in 2019. Thanks!
376,000 mice every day which leads to 94 million a year given 250 working days per year. If 365 days per year are assumed and every day produced 376,000 mice, the date would be 8 years from now, or (starting from 2009) 2017 (around April). However, if 250 working days per year are assumed, or the 94 million a year, then it would be around 11 (10.64) years. That leads to a final date in 2020 (near the middle of July).
376,000 per day and will reach 2 Billion in 2022
Congrats and thank you!
At an average of 376,000 mice produced per day, it would take ~ 7 years 3 months to produce the next billion, which would take us into 2016.
But if the per day figure is per *work* day then it would take until 2019 (assuming 7.8 million a month)

Makes an average of 376,000 mice a day so in 2019 they would reach 2 billion
On average 376,000 mice manufacteured per day. Will reach the 2 billion milestone in 2019.
274000 mice per day, 2 billionth mouse in 20 years.
manufactures an average of 376,000 mice per day and 7.8 million every month.
They’re projecting about a billion more by the year 2014.
2055
They manufacture an average of 376,000 mice per day and 7.8 million every month.
They’re projecting about a billion more by the year 2014.
– On average Logitech manufacture 376000 mice per day.
So that is 376000 x 365days (assuming that they are produced everyday of the year) = 137240000 mice produced in one year. To produce another 1 billion mice: 1000000000/137240000 = 7.28 years ~ 7.3 years So approximately 7 years from 2008 to produce another 1 billion mice at this rate.
– So in 2015 Logitech should have produced their 2 billionth mouse.
Nel 2035
Logitech manufactures an average of 376,000 mice per day. At that rate, it’ll be 2016 when Logitech ships its two billionth mouse.
However, the same press release that gave the number of mice per day also gave a different number for mice per month of 7.8 million and this second number, accounting for days off, is likely more accurate. If we go with that, then it’ll be 2019 when Logitech ships its two billionth mouse.
Here’s the press release:
http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/172/5388&cl=us,en

Logitech mouse production rate has boomed with manufacturing numbers of an average of 376,000 mice per day and 7.8 million each month. so at this rate in about 10.68 years or sometime in 2019 the 2 billionth mouse should be produced! I wonder if it will be holographic by then????
Mice per day? = 376000
2 billionth mouse? = approx 7 years, 4 months = 2016 😉
According to Logitech, you make about 7.8 Million mice a month. That means that you will reach another billion mice, at the same rate of growth, in 10 Years, 249 Days, 17 Hours, 50 Minutes and 46 seconds, approximately.

376000 a day, the year 2016
Logitech mice have been in production from 1985 (24 years) and are currently produced at an average rate of about 376000 per day. Based on the 1B milestone, though the overall average rate of production would be about 114155 mice per day.
At the current rate, it would therefore be around March 2015 when the 2Bth mouse is produced. Based on the current overall average, the 2Bth mouse would be produced in 2032.
Answer: The 2Bth mouse would be produced in 2032 or 2015, depending on which average value you work with. The question is a little ambiguous though, so I’m not sure if it’s asking for an answer based on the current daily average or the overall average. Can I have two answers to cover both bases?

Hi.
Q1: On average, how many mice does Logitech manufacture each day?
A1: 376,000 mice per day (7.8 million every month).
Q2:If Logitech were to continue to manufacture mice at that rate, in what year would the company reach its 2 billionth mouse milestone?
A2: 10 years and 9 months.
Logitech; great products. A long journey up to here, and a big journey to the next billion. Focus in the quality, innovation, design, and competitive price with each proposal. Listen the clients in each market, in each product line, in each segment. Never forget the quality, never. Build a product with adequate technical characteristics to the price, however never a product with low quality to the low price. Honest price for honest especifications; best quality all the time. That is the point.
Bye.
