The 115,000-square-foot facility more than doubles AGCO's West Coast parts capacity, putting more critical parts within fast reach of dealers and farmers.
DULUTH, Ga., Aug. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AGCO (NYSE: AGCO) will open a new, expanded Parts Distribution Center in Visalia, Calif., on September 1, 2026, significantly increasing the range of parts stocked for farmers and dealers across the western United States. Located in the heart of West Coast agriculture, the modern facility replaces AGCO's existing Visalia location and is designed to improve parts availability, accelerate delivery times and strengthen service for farmers and dealers across the western United States. A grand opening of the facility is planned for the first quarter of 2027.
"We reimagined every step of how parts move, from receiving to shipping, and built the systems to match, including advanced automation, smarter forecasting and a deeper local inventory," said Stefan Caspari, Senior Vice President, Customer Success and North American Ag, AGCO. "For our dealers and farmers, this means more of the parts they need are on the shelf and closer to home, giving them greater confidence that the right part will be there when it matters most."
The new 115,000-square-foot distribution center, visible from the Golden State Highway, more than doubles the size of AGCO's operation in the region. Expanded stocking capacity, advanced warehouse automation and improved forecasting will enable AGCO to stock a broader range of high-demand parts closer to customers. Strategically located in California's Central Valley, the center will support dealers and farmers across the western United States and AGCO's full brand portfolio, including Fendt™ and Massey Ferguson™.
AGCO dealers like Pat O'Neill, VP, Ag & Lift of Quinn Company are excited about the benefits the new center will bring their customers. "A parts center of this caliber in our backyard is a game changer," said O'Neill. "AGCO stocking more parts closer to home means we can get farmers the parts they need the same day, a real win for growers across California and the entire West Coast."
The facility reflects a long-term investment in AGCO's Farmer-First strategy and its growth across North America. AGCO designed the operation from the ground up, leveraging advanced storage systems, specialized material handling equipment and digital infrastructure to support the region's needs and AGCO's e-commerce growth for more than 20 years. The facility features vertical lift modules; high-density, narrow-aisle racking; dedicated storage for oversized components; rooftop solar power; and electric vehicle charging stations.
The Visalia project took shape over four years of network analysis, design and collaboration across AGCO's global organization, making it one of the most advanced parts facilities in the company. Its opening on September 1 lays the foundation for AGCO's continued growth across the western United States.
