DEUTZ and SDF expand strategic partnership
DEUTZ and agricultural machinery manufacturer SDF- share a long common history and look back on a long-term business partnership that started at the end of the “80s. The on-going successful partnership has led both DEUTZ and SDF to renew their collaboration with a long-term supply agreement, with not only the supply of engines, but also focuses on enlarging the service business between both companies.
The supply agreement includes engines in both the sub-4 litre as well as the above-4 litre range. In addition to the supply of DEUTZ TCD 4.1, 6.1 and 7.8 engines, SDF will also be introducing a complete new tractor range equipped with the EU Stage V compliant DEUTZ TCD 3.6 engine in 2021. On the service side, there are new business opportunities, including the availability of X-change. The new collaboration is expected to generate annual sales in the mid double digit million Euro range.
“We are very pleased that the longterm supply agreement will help us to further strengthen and expand our partnership with SDF. The fact that SDF has chosen DEUTZ as a strategic partner in this cooperation underlines once again the success of our long-standing business relationship,” says Michael Wellenzohn, DEUTZ Board Member for Sales, Service and Marketing.
