“I am excited to be back at Takeuchi among many colleagues I have known and have great respect for,” Granger said. “As evidenced by the company’s growth over the last few years, Takeuchi is thriving, and I am looking forward to being part of this growth and working with a strong dealer network.”

“Todd will be a huge part of continuing our investment and focusing on growing our dealer sales,” said Clay Eubanks, president of Takeuchi-US. “We are very excited to have him back with us.
