AKRS Equipment Sees Record Growth in 2024

Oct 03, 2024

AKRS Equipment, the largest John Deere dealer in Nebraska, projects record revenues for the 2024 fiscal year and is actively investing in facility upgrades despite challenges in the agricultural sector. The company is expanding its locations to meet the growing demand for agricultural equipment and new technologies.

CEO Kevin Clark emphasized the importance of upgrading facilities to enhance customer service and retain talent.

“In 2020, when AKRS was formed, we assessed our facilities and developed an aggressive plan to continually upgrade our facilities to ensure we are giving our customers the best service possible, to retain and grow our talented team, and to invest in the communities that support AKRS,” Clark said.

Recent improvements feature a much larger facility in David City, Nebraska, which opened in 2023, along with a 10,000-square-foot expansion in North Platte, Nebraska. In 2024, AKRS replaced its location in Oberlin, Kansas, with a new building that is four times the size of the previous one and began constructing a new facility in O’Neill, Nebraska.

Looking ahead, expansions are planned for Broken Bow and Albion in 2025. With a strong commitment to upgrading facilities and prioritizing customer service, AKRS aims to utilize these investments for ongoing growth and support within the community.
