Power Farming is now the exclusive distributor of JCB Agriculture in New Zealand.
Power Farming has announced a new chapter in its partnership with JCB, which having represented the UK-based company’s construction equipment for over three years, now sees the relationship expanding to include the renowned JCB Agriculture product range.
From February 1, 2025, Power Farming will officially begin its role as the exclusive distributor of JCB Agriculture in New Zealand, offering an extensive product line up, that includes models such as the JCB Fastrac Icon, Loadall Telehandlers, and the 435/457 Wheel Loaders. Comprehensive workshop, parts and warranty support is already in place to ensure a seamless transition for existing JCB owners.
“Power Farming is a family-owned business with its global headquarters in Morrinsville, Waikato. With over 75 years of operation across New Zealand, Australia, and more recently the United States, the addition of JCB Agriculture is a significant milestone in our ongoing growth,” said Tom Ruddenklau, chief executive of Power Farming New Zealand.
This partnership not only enhances Power Farming’s product portfolio but also ensures continuity and innovation in serving JCB Agriculture customers. The JCB Agriculture brand is already well established in New Zealand, and Power Farming says it extends its gratitude to the Landpower team for their exceptional care and leadership in developing the brand and setting a high standard for customer service. “Power Farming is committed to ensuring continuity and a seamless transition for JCB Agriculture customers as they join our network.”
