Each ADM Ag Services Division location can now order JCB skid steers and compact track loaders through this set-rate corporate purchase agreement with a variety of options for delivery and parts. After locations receive their machines, JCB’s North American network of authorized dealers, along with JCB’s dedicated field service staff, will provide after-the-sale maintenance and service support.
Casey JCB has been providing nearly a dozen ADM locations with JCB equipment for quite some time. In an effort to expand the relationship, Casey JCB worked diligently to facilitate the agreement between JCB and ADM. “The ADM groups have been highly impressed with JCB’s line of skid steers and compact track loaders,” said Jim Cox of Casey Equipment. “The company’s innovative, single-arm PowerBoom is an industry exclusive which improves visibility by 60% while allowing operators to safely enter and exit the machine through a convenient side door rather than a traditional front door. This keeps the operator from having to climb over any attachments to get into the machine.”
“The practicality of JCB skid steers and compact track loaders makes the machines both safe and convenient,” said Mark Hedger, Global Procurement for ADM. “Because our operators have better visibility from within the machine, they can naturally be more productive when loading materials. For us, it’s a win-win-win situation. We get to own outstanding equipment, improve operator safety and gain greater productivity.”
ADM has also purchased JCB wheel loaders and rough terrain forklifts through Casey JCB and are currently in the process of evaluating JCB’s popular line of Loadall telehandlers.
Manufactured at the company’s North American Headquarters in Savannah, GA, JCB skid steers and compact track loaders are compatible with over 30 attachment families for optimum year-round versatility. Buyers can choose from vertical-lift or radial lift models with three possible cab configurations: open canopy, cab with heat and cab with heat and factory-installed air conditioning. These machines also feature JCB’s unique Tier 4 Final engine solution which does not require a diesel particulate filter or other exhaust after-treatments.
“We’re approaching this partnership with ADM as an ideal growth opportunity to deliver substantial value in an increasingly competitive skid steer market,” said Dan Schmidt, JCB North America’s Vice President of Agriculture. “We’ll be working very closely with all locations to provide the machines they need in a manner that matches their particular preferences.”
