Italian tractor manufacturer Argo Tractors S.p.A. is pleased to announce the appointment of Agtek Ltd as its new exclusive distributor for Landini products in New Zealand, which became effective January1st. The agreement includes the post sale and spare parts service for McCormick products and will become a dedicated reference point also for McCormick end users.
Argo Tractors Export Sales Director, Mario Ribolla, explains, "we are extremely satisfied to announce this distribution agreement with Agtek Ltd. New Zealand is a most important market to our company and finding a company with the same ethos as our own is a strategic result in order to increase Landini market share. Argo Tractors is a company proud of its history, we have been producing tractors for well over 120 years and have been selling tractors in New Zealand for over 30 years. We are renowned for reliability and our after sales service".
Managing Director of Agtek, Mr. Gayne Carroll, was instrumental in the original success of Landini in New Zealand so knows the product well and has a strong passion for it. The opportunity to join forces with Agtek was simply a natural progression for both companies. Between us we will build a new nationwide after-sales network that is dedicated to providing the after sales service that our customers deserve.
The New Zealand tractor market is acquiring a growing familiarity with tractors manufactured by Argo Tractors and as such is one of the few manufacturers able to boast that none of its product are built or assembled in developing countries and its end users can be assured of its quality coming from countries like Italy.
With this joint front we have been able to establish strong competitive prices and an excellent warranty program. Agtek Ltd, headquartered in Tauranga in the Bay of Plenty, will be representing the Landini full range from 25 up to 225 HP including open field, crawler, isodiametric and specialized tractors for vineyards or orchards.
