Eis Implement, a third-generation, family-owned John Deere dealership serving the Manitowoc area since 1946 and the 2024 Farm Equipment Dealership of the Year, announced it is being acquired by Riesterer & Schnell, another family-owned John Deere dealership with deep roots in Wisconsin since 1931. This partnership brings together two longstanding leaders in agricultural, residential and commercial equipment solutions, further strengthening their commitment to customers, employees, and communities.

Chris and Jon Eis, the current owners of Eis Implement, shared their perspective on this transition:

"Our focus has always been on treating our customers and employees the way we would want to be treated. This philosophy has built lasting relationships and fostered a loyal and hardworking team. We are confident that Riesterer & Schnell, with their similar values and dedication to Wisconsin communities, is the perfect fit to continue and enhance what we’ve built over the years."
