Brandt Tractor Selected by Morbark, Rayco and Denis Cimaf as Authorized Dealer for Canada
Morbark LLC, and its affiliated brands Rayco and Denis Cimaf have selected Brandt Tractor Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Brandt Group of Companies, as the exclusive, authorized dealer for their tree care equipment lines in Canada. The equipment lines include brush chippers, stump cutters, articulated wheel loaders, forestry/biomass (whole tree drum chippers, Chiparvestors, flails), recycling (horizontal and tub grinders), and Rayco Forestry/Denis Cimaf (forestry mulchers and mulching attachments).
“For Morbark, it was an easy choice to sign Brandt as our exclusive dealer in Canada,” said Michael Stanton, vice president of sales and marketing. “Their 56 full-service locations will provide our Canadian customers with the complete support they need and deserve.”
Brandt was founded in 1932 as a small electrical contractor in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. After nine decades of growth, the company has become the world’s largest John Deere dealer, Brandt said, owning and operating 120 full-service equipment dealerships in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
“Brandt has a lot to offer Morbark customers in Canada,” said Brandt owner and CEO Shaun Semple. “We've built the largest, best-equipped support network in the country and are eager to earn the loyalty of our new customers by supporting their needs for equipment, aftermarket parts, and high-quality 24/7/365 customer support.”
Since executing the contract, Brandt sales and service teams have been busy preparing to support Morbark, Rayco, and Denis Cimaf customers by participating in sales and service trainings and building their inventory of equipment and aftermarket parts.
