L&T Farm Equipment Signs Franchise Deal with AGCO

After losing its contract with John Deere, L&T Farm Equipment has signed with Massey Ferguson to sell their parts and services.

BUCKHANNON -- An Upshur County farm equipment store that lost its John Deere franchise in October has signed a deal with a new tractor company.

L&T Farm Equipment will sell Massey Ferguson agriculture equipment along with parts and service.

It plans to sign a deal to sell Snapper lawn and garden equipment later this month.

Employees said they're happy about the new relationship with Massey Ferguson.

"There hasn't been a dealership close by. The closest dealer from here is about 70 or 80 miles out. So we're glad to have one come in here locally," said Donald Nay, L&T sales representative.

Nay said L&T will still service John Deere equipment, and that its Massey Ferguson equipment should arrive next month.

Your heading listed "Franchise", unless they have someting different it should have been listed as a "Dealer Agreement". A dealer agreement is conciderably different than a franchise, it leaves the manufacture with the upper hand and is usually not available in the Ag industry. A franchise would add value to your business investment.
