New Partnership Brings Brandt Material Handler to Midwestern US
Published: 27/9
The Midwest metal recycling industry now has access to the new, purpose-built Brandt Material Handler, thanks to a partnership between Brandt Industries and Murphy Tractor & Equipment Co. This partnership makes Murphy Tractor & Equipment Co. the first Brandt Material Handler dealer in the country.
The Brandt Material Handler is the only material handler designed, manufactured, and supported in North America. Built on the John Deere platform, it delivers unmatched productivity and uptime, with easy-to-find components and support through local dealerships.
Murphy Tractor & Equipment Co. was founded in 1982 and is headquartered in Park City, Kan. One of John Deere’s largest North American construction equipment dealers, Murphy has 29 locations throughout Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, and Ohio. Adding the Brandt Material Handler to its existing product offering will enable Murphy to provide a new option to increase efficiency and productivity for their metal recycling customers.
“The fact that the Brandt Material Handler is built in North America is a major advantage for our customers, who won’t have to wait for shipments of machines and parts from overseas,” says Jim Craig, Murphy’s general sales manager for road building and aggregates. “Having the Brandt and Deere names on this machine is a huge benefit for us, because of the quality they both bring to the industry.”
