This week John Deere hosted COMANCO at their facilities in Illinois. The trip, arranged by our local John Deere dealer Nortrax is reserved for special customers and is aimed at strengthening the customer relationship with John Deere.
Nortrax representatives Brad Butler (General Manager) and Jack Condry (Territory Manager) accompanied Clayton Lung (Vice President), Michael Fraley (Fleet Manager) and Matt DiTarando (IT Manager) to historical Moline, Illinois headquarters of John Deere for three days of factory tours, product demos and vendor meets. The events also included technical discussions with subject matter experts on maximizing value from John Deere equipment.
