This move brings together eighteen John Deere locations across Indiana and Ohio, allowing TRU<\/em><\/strong>LAND <\/em>Equipment to provide their customers with greater service support and inventory choices. TRU<\/em><\/strong>LAND <\/em>Equipment will also provide new opportunities for their employees with increased scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis partnership was a several-year process, and we really took our time to make sure this was a good fit for our two companies as well as for our customers,\u201d said Tom Burenga, CEO of Kenn-Feld Group. \u201cBy combining our experience and capabilities, we are building a stronger organization that is better positioned to thrive while offering an expanded product portfolio to our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TRU<\/em><\/strong>LAND <\/em>Equipment will continue to serve its customers in all eighteen of its locations in the region and is poised for growth in both service offerings and number of employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jameson Ringger, CEO of TTG Equipment, emphasized that TRU<\/em><\/strong>LAND <\/em>will stay focused on maintaining a local feel and relationship-based business model. \u201cWe are two local companies joining together into one local company. While the name on the sign will change, the team will not.

This move is a win for all three.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
