Linder Industrial Machinery expands its equipment dealership network by purchasing Cumberland Tractor in Fayetteville.
“We look forward to growing the great reputation and contributions that Cumberland Tractor has made to this community over the past 65 years,” said John Coughlin, President & CEO of Linder, in a press release. Linder will continue offering Kubota construction and agricultural machines at the 1530 Middle River Loop location, along with the full line of Komatsu and BOMAG heavy equipment and other products and attachments.
Cumberland Tractor owners Jack & Charles Horne were very excited about Linder's products combined with the Kubota line-up. Jack mentioned in a press release, “I have had a long relationship with Linder and even a longer one with Komatsu. The combination of all this top-quality equipment under one roof has been my dream for many years.”
Linder now has 20 locations in the Carolinas and Florida. Four of these branches now represent Kubota equipment under the name “Linder Turf & Tractor.” Fayetteville joins Greenville, North Carolina, a new location in Greensboro, North Carolina, and a branch in Bradenton, Florida, all displaying the Kubota flag.
“Our customers have always benefited from our dealer network,” said Coughlin in a press release. “We are the number one Komatsu dealership in the United States and now have four Kubota stores; this gives us advantages over smaller dealers. We can offer the people of Fayetteville a greater variety of equipment and get machines faster than others.”
Linder employs more than 600 people in three states. This year, 2023, marks its 70th year in operation. The company has been in the Carolinas since purchasing Mitchell Distributing Company in 2003.
