This distribution strategy leverages the scope and size of traditional Vermeer dealerships by focusing on market segments with differentiated product needs. Blending the learnings and engineering expertise of both teams provides dealerships and customers with products that are easy to buy and own.
“Adding Fecon engineering and technology will make it easier for customers to buy the equipment best suited to their needs,” says Bob Dieckman, Fecon LLC CEO. “With its extensive coverage and high standard of customer support, as well as the professional and strategic Vermeer sales organization, we are certain that both organizations will benefit from the partnership.”
Fecon will start the process with a select, yet global group of Vermeer dealers in 2021, as well as strategically specify products and methodically expand from there. The company will assume production and support of the Vermeer model FT100 and FT300 forestry mulching tractors, and has begun moving these functions to its Lebanon, Ohio factory.
"Fecon’s forestry innovation and product lineup is a great complement to our equipment portfolio," says Doug Hundt, Vermeer president of Industrial Solutions. "With a lineup of products that support the land clearing, utility right-of-way and fire mitigation markets, these mulching attachments and tractors will give our dealers a broader portfolio to support those customers we are already working with in those markets."
