The expansion, which will include the availability of backhoe loaders, excavators, wheel loaders, motor graders, and crawler dozers, will be sold and supported by independent, newly appointed John Deere dealers, to be announced.

“This expansion provides an opportunity for us to increase our global footprint in the construction industry as we build upon our existing presence in Africa and deliver our product portfolio under the John Deere brand for the first time to these key markets,” said Jaco Beyers, managing director for John Deere Africa Middle East.
