AGCO (NYSE: AGCO), a global leader in the design, manufacture and distribution of agricultural machinery and precision ag technology, today announced a multimillion-dollar investment in its U.S. West Coast operations with a new, expanded Visalia Parts Distribution Center (PDC). 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.
Located less than three 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.”
Visalia’s central location in the heart of West Coast agriculture enables AGCO to reach any dealer or farmer in the region within a day. The new facility will reduce lead times and improve fill rates for high-demand parts across AGCO’s full brand portfolio.
The new PDC is scheduled to begin operations in late 2026.
