Linder Industrial Machinery
PFG America, the American distributor of European-made Deutz-Fahr tractors and Stoll loaders, announced its largest new dealer partnership yet with Linder Industrial Machinery and Linder Turf and Tractor.
Effective April 1, Linder will represent Deutz-Fahr and Stoll at 22 new locations across the Southeast.
Dan Cook, CEO of PFG America, said "Partnering with Linder is our largest dealer onboarding. It will open our high-quality Deutz-Fahr tractors to American farmers across previously unrepresented territories in Florida, the Carolinas and south Georgia.
"What's most exciting about our partnership with Linder, is the incredible level of service capability they bring for our customers in the Southeast. We have been working closely together over the past year, and I am confident there is no better partner for our brand and customers.
"Linder brings exceptional dealership locations, the very best staff, systems and training. This is an organization with 24/7 service with over 200 service vehicles, 25 lube trucks, and 275 technicians; all techs are certified in products they represent including Deutz-Fahr."
John Coughlin, president and CEO of Linder Industrial Machinery, said, "After extensive research, we have finally found the right combination of quality and performance to serve the agriculture and construction markets. The standard features on Deutz-Fahr tractors are options for most manufacturers. This equipment is a game changer in the U.S. market.
"We have been growing our agricultural business by delivering exceptional after-sales care. But we were missing a high-quality large tractor line, with excellence in the 6-cylinder and specialty markets, that are so important across the Southeast. After extensive research, including visiting two Deutz-Fahr factories in Germany and Italy, they checked all the boxes.
"We have high aspirations for Deutz-Fahr and Stoll across our network and can't wait to show them to our existing and future customers."
Cook said, "We are delighted to partner with Linder and add them to our rapidly growing network of dealers in America. This financial year, Deutz will eclipse 1,000 retail sales for the first time in America, and we are forecasting fifty percent growth in the year coming. This will be driven primarily by our class-leading Specialty tractors and high-quality 6-cylinder line. That's what Deutz is known for globally."
