H&R Agri-Power Acquires Hoefling Truck & Tractor

Washington, Ind. – H&R Agri-Power announces the acquisition of Hoefling Truck and Tractor located at Washington, Ind. The Hoefling operation has been a 4-generation, family-run business that opened in 1941 and has evolved through a variety of business ventures and location changes bringing them to where they are today.

Currently, Hoefling has 2 locations on the same campus including Hoefling Truck & Tractor, which H&R acquired on October 3, and Hoefling Lawn & Cycle Sales, which H&R plans to acquire later this year.

“We are looking forward to working with a great group of individuals as we expand and grow in this new territory,” said Steve Hunt, President of H&R Agri-Power. “The Hoeflings have a long-standing reputation of top-notch service and support. As we make this transition, we look forward to building customer and employee relationships based on that strong foundation.”

David Hoefling stated, “To be completely honest, this process has been smoother than we anticipated it to be.   The Hunts have a great family feel that we are accustomed to, and we are proud that they can offer employee ownership, as well as some excellent benefits that have been challenging to offer as a stand-alone dealership.”  

Lauren Wilson continued by explaining, “This will allow us to continue to acquire and keep top talent.  While this is a bittersweet day and experience for Hoefling family members, coworkers, and customers alike, we feel confident the future is bright for our community we care so much about.”

With the acquisition of Hoefling Truck & Tractor, this will bring H&R Agri-Power to 19 total locations, including FB McAfoos & Company: a division of H&R Agri-Power located in Benton, IL. H&R Agri-Power has locations in 6 states including Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi.

Canada's Agriculture Day 2025

Video: Canada's Agriculture Day 2025

Let's celebrate Canadian agriculture.

Well, number one, you don't eat without farmers. Farmers put food on the table. And what could be more important than that?

Well, I think it's important that Canadians understand exactly what takes place, what happens to produce this food, no matter what sector you're talking about.

An awful lot of work goes into that. It's important to understand that meat does not come out of a showcase, and milk does not come out of a bottle. It's produced by farmers and hard work.

Canada has the best farmers in the world. And agriculture is vital to Canada.

In 2024, our agriculture and agri-food sector represented $150 billion of Canada's GDP, nearly $100 billion of our exports, and one in nine jobs.

From grains to fruits to dairy and beef, we are truly blessed with an incredible bounty. Having spent my whole life in agriculture, I see so much potential for the sector.

This time last year, I was proud to open our first-ever agriculture and trade office in the Indo-Pacific, the world’s fastest-growing economy, to cement our presence in the region and grow our exports even more. We've also been making historic investments to help our farmers to boost their yields, protect the planet, and earn a fair living.

The world wants more top-quality, sustainable food, and I know our Canadian farmers can deliver. And it's so important that you do that with pride. We need you.

Quite simply, you eat the most top quality food in the world. You do that because of the quality of farmers and ranchers you have in this country.

Just say thank you to a farmer or a rancher. They work very hard, yes, for a living, but also with a sense of pride in what they produce.

That's what Canada's Agriculture Day is all about.
