AGCO Announces Multi-million Dollar Investment in West Coast Operations

AGCO has announced a multimillion-dollar investment in its U.S. West Coast operations with a new, expanded Visalia Parts Distribution Center (PDC). According to an Aug. 6 news release from the Duluth, Ga.-based company, the modern facility will support all AGCO leading brands, including the rapid growth of Fendt in the U.S., and provide enhanced service to western U.S. farmers, including California’s crucial crop farmers. The new PDC is scheduled to begin operations in late 2026.

Located less than 3 miles from the current site, the new 115,000-square-foot facility will replace the existing center and feature advanced warehouse automation, expanded stocking capacity and improved forecasting capabilities to ensure faster delivery and greater parts availability for AGCO dealers and customers.

“California’s high-value crop farmers rely on precision equipment that runs long hours, often logging over 2,000 hours per year in demanding conditions,” said Jena Holtberg-Benge, AGCO Vice President of Aftersales and Parts. “By expanding our parts distribution capabilities in Visalia, we’re putting Farmers First — ensuring rapid access to critical components that keep machines running and on track during peak seasons.”
