Otis Worldwide makes elevators and escalators. It sells new equipment to building developers and construction companies, and it services existing units for building owners around the world. Otis is one of the largest elevator companies on the planet and owns the Otis brand, which has been around for over 170 years.

Most of Otis's revenue comes from its service business, where it charges building owners ongoing fees to maintain, repair, and modernize their elevators and escalators. The company operates globally, with a large presence in North America, Europe, and China, and generates roughly $14 billion in annual revenue. Its biggest competitive advantage is its massive installed base of over 2 million units under service contracts, which creates steady, recurring income that is hard for competitors to take away. The main risk is that a slowdown in global construction reduces demand for new equipment, which is the segment that feeds future service contracts.
